Accreditation Matters - Find The Right Mediator

Our Accredited Family Mediator (AccFM) designation has become the standard in Ontario, recognized by The Ministry of the Attorney General and in the Family Court System.

The designation shows that a Family Mediator has proven experience in human services, has completed specific education and training, and upholds OAFM’s Standards of Practice.

Family Mediators come from many different professional backgrounds including law, psychology, social work and finance. While each profession brings a unique understanding and approach to mediation, Accreditation serves to standardise practice and develop skills and insights that are specific to Family Mediation.
