The class is a mix of synchronous Zoom meetings and asynchronous content. Successful conflict resolution requires an exceptionally high level of competence in communication and process skills. To develop those skills, students should expect to participate in role-plays, simulations, and other exercises that practice live skills in nearly every class session.
