“…The purpose of this work is developing a regional model for the preparation of mediation practices for resolving conflicts in education in a multinational Siberian society.

“…The design of the training programme for mediators involved the development and improvement of the regulatory framework, a systematic analysis of the existing programmes of additional professional education, and the identification of the regional need for the specialisation of intermediaries. The novelty of the model developed by the School of Education Psychology and Sociology of SibFU was that it was designed taking into account federal standards of higher education and the professional standard of a specialist in the field of mediation (mediator) (Smolyaninova, 2019) and is focused on the preparation of intercultural mediators (Smolyaninova, 2018).

The article describes various models of training mediators for the education system in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan. A comparative analysis of the mediation services development in Siberia and Kazakhstan for the possibilities and prospects of cooperation and interaction is carried out. The article presents specific features of the model for training intercultural mediators for resolving interethnic conflicts in the Krasnoyarsk Krai. This model meets the needs of multinational Siberian society and is aimed at solving regional problems in the education system. A peculiar characteristic of the model for the Krasnoyarsk Krai is its multi-level nature, openness and continuity of preparation, with the inclusion of formal and non-formal education elements. Interdisciplinary nature of interaction of the network partners involved in the training and retraining of mediators for the education system gives an opportunity to use the potential and resources of professional mediators and trainers of Siberia (Kemerovo, Irkutsk), Federal Institute of Mediation, Moscow, and National Academy of Education named after Y. Altynsarin (Kazakhstan). The model for the intercultural mediators training developed at the School of Education, Psychology and Sociology has been tested for two years as a part of its implementation in the Master programme of the School of Education, Psychology and Sociology within the frames of the educational programme “Mediation in Education”, advanced training courses, three International Youth Summer Schools “Multicultural Mediation in Education”, expert seminars, intensive schools “Mediation is the Profession of the 21st Century”, and a competition for high school students of the Krasnoyarsk Krai “Mediation Is The Profession Of The Future”

“…The practice-oriented approach in its basic meanings and focus reflects the main processes of education modernisation, which are based on training of professionally competent graduates; as for future mediators in the field of education (Smolyaninova, 2019) they should be able to quickly adapt to the conditions of specific practical activities, be professionally mobile and perceive a wide range of various professional information. Only a practicing specialist can fully manifest mediation competence, but it is formed during the period of study on the retraining programme at the university.…”

The relevance of the present study is confirmed by an order for retraining specialists for education and the social sphere who can act as mediators and form a culture of peaceful conflict resolution in a multicultural environment. The article analyses and highlights employers’ demands for the mediation competence formation among the participants of the educational space of the Krasnoyarsk Krai. In this context, the authors disclose practical aspects of the mediation competence formation in the process of professional training of future mediators and specialists of school mediation services at the federal university. Based on the analysis of specific features of mediators professional activity, the results of a survey of specialists in the social sphere, as well as experience of training students majoring in pedagogy at the federal university, a model of a practice-oriented programme for retraining mediators for education and the social sphere of the Krasnoyarsk Krai has been proposed. The programme is implemented on the basis of the Centre for Mediation in Education of the School of Education, Psychology and Sociology of Siberian Federal University, in the networking between educational organisations and professional communities. The retraining programme considers the needs of the multinational Siberian society and is aimed at solving regional problems in education and the social sphere. The retraining programme is based on the principles of continuity, professional activity supervision, eventfulness of the educational process, professional activity tests, as well as continuity of the results of formal and non-formal education. Future mediators training within the framework of the retraining programme “Mediation. The Psychology of Conflict Management” is carried out according to a modular curriculum, in which the proportion of practical classes is increased, students’ scientific and research activities on the issues of productive communication in a mediation procedure are organised, and professional tests are carried out within the framework of placement practice. To form the applied aspects of the professional competence of future mediators and specialists of school mediation services, representatives of network partners take part in the educational process. The applied aspects of training future mediators and specialists of school mediation services among teachers help to effectively solve professional tasks of organising a conflict-free educational space and contribute to the formation of the culture of productive communication and conflict resolution. The mediation competence formation among the educational process participants was carried out using methods of measuring communicative, information and analytical, organisational and managerial, as well as emotional competences. The study was conducted with the use of Google services in the period of 2019-2020. In total, 333 people took part in the study, including 238 practicing specialists of school mediation services (control group), and 95 master’s students of the School of Education, Psychology and Sociology of Siberian Federal University in Krasnoyarsk and students of the professional retraining programme “Mediation. The Psychology of Conflict Management” (experimental group)
