Mediation in the Federal Courts - Webinar

IRSV (Industrial Relations Society of Victoria) are delighted to invite all IRS members to their Advocacy Skills webinar series. 

The first webinar focuses on Mediation in the Federal Courts to be held on Tuesday 27 May at 5:00pm.

The presenters:

Register Amelia Edwards Federal Court of Australia

Register Jacinta Ellis Federal Court of Australia

Gemma Carroll (Chair) Senior Associate, KHQ Lawyers

When one compares the rate of certificates that are issued under s 368, and the amount of matters that are finally determined by the Federal Courts, it is clear that there is an inordinate about of justice done in mediation in the Federal Courts.

This access to justice goes unheralded, and mediation at the Federal Courts has rarely talked about in industrial relations circles. Until now!

Amelia Edwards and Jacinta Ellis, National Judicial Registrars of the Federal Court of Australia, have kindly agreed to share some insights. They will shed some light on the statistics of their work as mediators in Fair Work matters, identify some trends, provide some helpful tips and tricks, and will otherwise be available to answer questions. It promises to be a practical session, in which those who regularly litigate matters in the Federal Courts will leave with some new information to deploy in their industrial relations practice.

The webinar complimentary for IRS members will be held online and facilitated by Gemma Carroll (webinar link to be provided).
