§ 3165 Family Court Supervisor Training

If you were hired on or after Jan 1 1998 and you supervise evaluators, investigators, mediators, or the Family Court Services evaluation/mediation programs, you have to take the same continuing‑education classes that Section 1816 requires for conciliation counselors.

Key Takeaways

  • •Applies to anyone hired on/after Jan 1 1998.
  • •Covers supervisors of evaluators, investigators, mediators, or the Family Court Services evaluation/mediation programs.
  • •Those supervisors must follow the continuing‑education rules in Section 1816.
  • •The rule is the same whether you’re a manager, director, or any other title.

Example

A family‑court case manager hired in 2002 who directly oversees the mediators that help parents settle custody disputes.

Because this person supervises mediators and was hired after Jan 1 1998, they must complete the same continuing‑education courses that a conciliation counselor has to take under Section 1816.
