LEAVING VDC?

Please fill out our Exiting Member Questionnaire. Members agreed to do this in your Annual Attestation and we genuinely value your input and any impetus for growth!  

ENSURE YOUR COMPLIANCE WITH IACP ETHICS & STANDARDS:

Did you know that you cannot call yourself a “collaborative professional” or call a process “collaborative” unless: Your agreement includes a Disqualification Clause? You’re a member of a collaborative practice group? You’re also a trained Mediator? Review: IACP Ethics & Standards.

PURPOSE OF VDC, from our Bylaws:

The purpose of VDC is to provide qualified collaborative professionals, living in and/or licensed/certified in California, a supportive community of colleagues who together learn, generate cases and promote the growth of Collaborative Practice and Consensual Dispute Resolution (CDR) options. Distinct from most practice groups, VDC is an open, statewide practice group. These bylaws are therefore designed to quickly orient and include new, untrained and newly trained members, and to delineate the collaborative spirit and nature of our work together.
