“Supervision is a formal professional relationship between two or more people in designated roles, which facilitates reflective practice, explores ethical issues, and develops skills.” (Australian Clinical Supervision Association, 2015; cited in Supervision Guidelines for Mental Health Alcohol and Other Drugs Services 2023).
This two-day workshop will prepare you for your supervisor role. It is designed for staff from all disciplines including non-clinical areas such as the peer workforce. During this workshop you will explore ways to enhance your supervisor skills using a variety of strategies and tools. Several high-quality skills demonstration videos are shown that model the core elements of good supervision practice. As you deepen your understanding of these elements you will have opportunities to practise delivering supervision that is culturally sensitive.
To be able to progress and enrol in this training you must pass a pre-enrolment screen that requires you to:
- meet the minimum requirements to be a Supervisor as set out in the Supervision Guidelines for Mental Health Alcohol and Other Drug Services, 2023
- complete QC60 Introduction to Supervision eLearning
There are resources provided to help you answer the questions.
This screen ensures that everyone who attends our QC4 Supervisor training comes with a similar understanding of the key concepts, regardless of previous experience and/or training in supervision.
