MGH Clay Center Conflict Resolution Course
This course is intended to help parents and caregivers better address and resolve conflicts in their lives. In an asynchronous format, we will explore conflict in three modules:
- Module 1: Learning from the Arts and Media
- Module 2: Applying to Real-Life Scenarios
- Module 3: Changing the Culture of a Community
The definition of an “interpersonal conflict” according to the American Psychology Association is disagreement or discord between people with respect to goals, values, or attitudes.
While the majority of this course is geared toward interpersonal conflict in our lives – between family members, or friends – it will also touch on how to approach conflict resolution at the community level.
Pricing: $49.99
