Sabbatical Status

A CPM who is unable to obtain CEUs for a period of time may request to be placed on sabbatical status by submitting a written request to the IMA Administrator at admin@idahomediationassociation.org.

For CPMs on sabbatical status, the following apply:

1. The IMA member’s name will not appear on the CPM list on the IMA website.

2. The IMA member may not advertise or otherwise hold himself or herself out as an IMA Certified Professional Mediator.

3. The IMA member must pay annual IMA dues at the CPM rate. An IMA member whose membership lapses for failure to timely pay annual dues is not eligible to reinstate CPM status.

4. The IMA member can remain on sabbatical status indefinitely.

5. Prior to reinstating CPM status, the IMA member must provide proof of having completed 20 hours of CEUs within the two years immediately preceding the request for reinstatement.
