About 6 times a year, I teach a one-day course on calculating maintenance payments. This morning, once again, I explained the main principles of the Dutch maintenance guidelines to a group of newly qualified lawyers and mediators. I notice that participants particularly appreciate the examples drawn from my mediation practice. In the afternoon, they worked through a case themselves using the Split-Online calculation software.
It is rewarding every time to see participants finish the day with greater knowledge, understanding and practical experience of maintenance calculations. As a trainer, I can only be pleased when the evaluations also show that participants found the day extremely educational.
