Higher Education

Mission

Consistent with the mission of CNCR is the study of institutionalization of Conflict Management (CM) in the University System of Georgia. The Board of Regents‘ Initiative and Policy Direction on Conflict Resolution, enacted in 1995, required each of the then 34 institutions within the University System of Georgia to design and implement a CM program to meet their individual needs.

In collaboration with the Chancellor's Office, CNCR

• provides technical expertise and training support for the Initiative
• administers the System-wide Mediation Program;
• and, conducts periodic evaluation on the development and implementation of CM.

Using the knowledge and experience gained from this program, CNCR advises on the development of CM in higher education institutions across the U.S. and around the globe.
