Your AREN Registration Includes Three Months of Free Access to NIA
NIA, the Negotiation Intelligence Assistant, is built around the same negotiation principles, language and methodology you’ll learn in AREN.
After the course, NIA becomes your thinking partner, helping you apply your new skills to the real negotiations, client conversations and strategic decisions you encounter in your business.
Use NIA to prepare for negotiations, clarify interests and emotional drivers, explore options, pressure-test your assumptions, practise difficult conversations and debrief your results.
NIA will not replace your professional judgment or tell you what to do. She will help you think more deeply, prepare more thoroughly and negotiate with greater confidence.
AREN gives you the foundation. NIA helps you put it to work.

AREN is taught live online via Zoom in small, highly interactive groups.
