The homologation of professional competence in the field of alternative dispute settlement mechanisms

Abstract

Professional competence is currently one of the central issues in the context of any work activity, since
within the constant changes of the social context, needs arise that demand quality of specialized
training, favorable conditions that obviously favor the field of Alternative Mechanisms of Dispute
Resolution, referring specifically to the facilitator’s intervention, which is a recognized figure even in
the legislation. This is concerned with leading the parties in conflict to the creation of solutions integrating
for the activity indicated the theoretical and practical knowledge that the law establishes, at
the same time as adhering to their own experience, competence, and discipline. This article reflects
on the need not to lose focus on the homologation of the professional competence of those who in
their duty to be and do contribute to the resolution of disputes from a perspective of professional
recognition. Likewise, proposals are made in relation to disciplinary competence, given the diverse
professions that are involved and that assume the role of facilitator, which if not addressed under
outlined capacities, will generate discrepancies with unwanted results, which is highlighted in the
same on the importance of intervening in these procedures from the professional formality, and in a
plane of homologated and certified knowledge.
