Maintaining Tūhono accreditation: Every three years we'll send you a reminder to apply for renewal of your Tūhono accreditation. To maintain your accreditation you'll need to show us evidence that you've met continuous professional development (CPD) requirements over the three years including:
- Mediated at least three mediations using the Tūhono model (or Kaupapa Māori mediation as approved by the Tūhono Collective) or aspects of the Tūhono model, within a three year period.
- Attended workshops, courses or e-lectures relating to Tūhono mediation (or similar Kaupapa Māori mediation as approved by the Tūhono Collective) for at least 20 hours within a three year period.
- Engaged in regular professional supervision (supervisor approved by the Tūhono Collective). As a guide, professional supervision should be undertaken once every six months.
