Employment Arbitration & Mediation Today

The 'Employment Arbitration and Mediation Today' conference, organized by the American Arbitration Association and the Center for Labor & Employment Law at NYU School of Law, is set to take place on March 16, 2026. This event aims to bring together practitioners, corporate counsel, neutrals, and academics for a practical and timely program focused on the evolving landscape of employment arbitration and mediation. Participants can expect to engage in discussions covering a variety of relevant topics, including the role of artificial intelligence in employment decision-making and dispute resolution, strategies for managing mass arbitration cases, and updates on key legal and regulatory changes. Additionally, there will be a dedicated session addressing access to justice for self-represented parties, ensuring that all voices are heard in the arbitration process. The day will feature interactive panels designed to provide actionable takeaways for both management and employee-side counsel, along with opportunities for networking during breakfast, lunch, and a closing reception. This conference is not only a chance to learn about the latest trends and best practices but also to connect with fellow professionals in the field.
