Privacy Policy
Effective date: June 6, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how WBGR ADR Institute (“WBGR,” “the Institute,” “we,” “us”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit this site, register for training, or use the student and professor portal. By using the site you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
Registration details — your first and last name, email address, phone number, the training program you select, your chosen payment method, and, where you claim the military discount, your confirmation that you hold a DD 214.
Account and learning records — your assigned student number, course progress, quiz attempts and scores, recorded contact hours, attendance, and certificate of completion records.
Mock-mediation submissions — recordings you upload or link, the names of the practice parties you enter, and the notes and grades exchanged with your reviewer.
Payment references — the payment method and confirmation details needed to reconcile your tuition. We do not collect or store full bank account numbers, full routing numbers, card numbers, or banking passwords.
Technical data — information your browser sends automatically, and limited data stored in your browser (for example, local demo progress) to operate the portal.
How we use information
To enroll you, deliver the training, and track your progress toward completion.
To confirm tuition payments and, where applicable, calculate instructor payouts.
To issue and later verify your certificate of completion.
To respond to your enrollment, payment, and support requests.
To operate, secure, and improve the portal.
How information is stored and shared
Portal data is held in managed cloud infrastructure (including Netlify hosting, database, and file storage) protected by access controls. We share information only as needed to run the program — for example, with the payment service you choose (such as PayPal, Zelle, or Cash App) to confirm tuition, or with a hosting provider that stores uploaded recordings — or where required by law. We do not sell your personal information. Certificate verification is public by design: anyone with a certificate ID can confirm the name, program, completion date, ID, and issuer printed on that certificate, but never your email or account.
Data retention
We keep enrollment, learning, certificate, and payout records for as long as needed to administer the program and meet recordkeeping, tax, and legal obligations. You may ask us to delete information that we are not required to retain.
Your choices and rights
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, subject to records we must keep. To make a request, contact us using the details below. The portal is intended for adults; it is not directed to children under 18.
Security
We use measures such as encrypted connections (HTTPS) and role-based access to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes
We may update this Policy from time to time. Material changes will be posted here with a new effective date.

Refund Policy
Effective date: June 7, 2026
WBGR ADR Institute wants you to enroll with confidence. This policy explains when tuition for the 40-Hour Basic Facilitative Mediation Training (and Sports & Entertainment modules) is refundable. It applies to all payment methods. Card payments are processed by our payment provider (Stripe); approved refunds on a card payment are returned automatically to the original card. PayPal, Zelle, and Cash App payments are confirmed and refunded manually by the Institute.
Before your cohort or course access begins
Full refund if you request cancellation in writing at least 7 days before your cohort start date (for live cohorts) or before your portal course access is activated (for self-paced enrollment).
Within 7 days of the start, and before you have accessed course materials, you may cancel for a refund of tuition less a $95 administrative fee.
After course access or the cohort begins
Once you have accessed the curriculum slides, lecture videos, or other course materials, tuition is non-refundable, because the digital course content has been delivered.
No refund is available after a certificate of completion has been issued, or after you have submitted a mock mediation for review.
How to request a refund
Email payments@wbgradrinstitute.com (or call 202-299-8435) with your full name, the email used at registration, and your reason for the request. For card payments, an approved refund is issued through Stripe to the original card and typically appears within 5–10 business days. For PayPal, Zelle, and Cash App, approved refunds are returned using the same method where possible, normally within 14 business days of approval; because those payments are confirmed manually, please allow time for the Institute to verify the original payment.
Discounts, transfers, and exceptions
The military/DD 214 discount and other promotional pricing are applied to tuition before any refund is calculated; refunds never exceed the amount actually paid.
If you cannot continue, you may ask to transfer your enrollment to a later cohort once, at no charge, instead of cancelling.
If the Institute cancels a cohort or is unable to deliver the training you paid for, you are entitled to a full refund or a transfer, at your choice.
Fees charged by an outside payment provider are outside the Institute's control and are not part of a refund.

Code of Conduct for Mediators
Adopted and effective: June 6, 2026 · Version 2026-06-06
The WBGR ADR Institute has formally adopted this Code of Conduct for every student, graduate, and instructor of its mediation training. It is aligned to and adapted from the 2005 Model Standards of Conduct for Mediators, prepared by the American Arbitration Association (AAA), the American Bar Association (ABA) Section of Dispute Resolution, and the Association for Conflict Resolution (ACR). Those Model Standards are the recognized ethical framework for the practice of mediation in the United States, and the nine standards below restate their duties as commitments each member of the WBGR ADR community agrees to uphold.
This Code is an ethical commitment, not a substitute for the rules of any court, agency, or jurisdiction in which you may serve. Where a court order, statute, or local rule imposes a stricter or different requirement, that requirement governs.
Standard I — Self-Determination
A mediator shall conduct a mediation based on the principle of party self-determination. Self-determination is the act of coming to a voluntary, uncoerced decision in which each party makes free and informed choices as to process and outcome. I will respect each party's right to reach their own voluntary agreement, will not pressure or coerce a party into settlement, and will not allow my own preferences about the outcome to override the parties' decisions.
Standard II — Impartiality
A mediator shall decline a mediation if the mediator cannot conduct it in an impartial manner. I will serve only in matters in which I can remain impartial, will conduct the mediation in an even-handed way, free of favoritism, bias, or prejudice based on a party's personal characteristics, background, values, or conduct, and will withdraw if I am no longer able to act impartially.
Standard III — Conflicts of Interest
A mediator shall avoid a conflict of interest or the appearance of a conflict of interest during and after a mediation. I will make a reasonable inquiry to identify conflicts, will disclose as soon as practicable any fact or relationship that a reasonable person would consider likely to affect my impartiality, and will not mediate — or will withdraw — where a conflict casts serious doubt on the integrity of the process, unless the parties, after disclosure, freely choose to proceed.
Standard IV — Competence
A mediator shall mediate only when the mediator has the necessary competence to satisfy the reasonable expectations of the parties. I will undertake only matters for which I am qualified by training and experience, will be candid about my qualifications, and will continue to develop my skills and understanding of the mediation process.
Standard V — Confidentiality
A mediator shall maintain the confidentiality of all information obtained by the mediator in mediation, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties or required by applicable law. I will not disclose information shared in confidence, will honor any agreement the parties reach about confidentiality, will keep confidences shared with me in a private caucus unless given permission to reveal them, and will use confidential information only as permitted.
Standard VI — Quality of the Process
A mediator shall conduct a mediation in accordance with these Standards and in a manner that promotes diligence, timeliness, safety, presence of the appropriate participants, party participation, procedural fairness, party competency, and mutual respect among all participants. I will conduct mediations diligently and respectfully, will not undertake more than I can do well, will not knowingly misrepresent any material fact, and will not allow a mediation to be used to further illegal conduct.
Standard VII — Advertising and Solicitation
A mediator shall be truthful and not misleading when advertising, soliciting, or otherwise communicating the mediator's qualifications, experience, services, and fees. I will not make promises or guarantees about outcomes, will represent my training and credentials accurately, and will not state or imply that completing this training is a government license or court certification where it is not.
Standard VIII — Fees and Other Charges
A mediator shall provide each party or each party's representative true and complete information about mediation fees, expenses, and any other actual or potential charges that may be incurred in connection with a mediation. I will explain my fees and charges fully and in advance, will base them on objective and fair factors, and will not enter into a fee arrangement that is contingent on the outcome or the amount of any settlement.
Standard IX — Advancement of Mediation Practice
A mediator should act in a manner that advances the practice of mediation. I will support access to mediation, will treat all participants and colleagues with respect, will be open to feedback and continued learning, and will help promote the responsible, ethical practice of mediation in my community.

Instructor Payment Portal
Choose the payee, list the student signups that instructor taught, and the portal pays them 15% of the tuition those students paid. Every payout is saved on the server and kept year to year.
Every recording students submit lands here. Open the recording, grade the session against the score sheet (1–5 per item), leave feedback, and mark it Passed or Needs revision. Students need two Passed reviews to complete the course.

How far students get through each program, computed from their saved learning records and documented contact hours using the same 70% pass rule the Class Room enforces. The funnel shows how many reach each stage; the biggest fall between two stages is where the program is losing people, and each student's furthest stage is where they are stuck right now.
