For many years, members of the Harvard faculty have offered popular, week-long workshops in negotiation and mediation through the Program of Instruction for Lawyers.
Now called the Harvard Negotiation Institute, these workshops are held in June. A Mediation Workshop is also held in the Fall. Workshops meet Monday through Friday, 9AM to 5PM, on the Harvard Law School campus.
The workshops are open to lawyers and others seeking comprehensive learning in negotiation and mediation. Participants from a wide variety of professions have found these programs invaluable.
The dates of the 2012 workshops will be June 4 through June 15, 2012.
