Introduction

The aim of this course is to provide attendees with the building blocks for safe and evidenced-based practice within supervision. This course has three distinct but interrelated and interdependent elements. The first being two virtual teaching days via our Zoom pro platform or Face to face, access to our online learning resources, followed by assessment of competencies in practice. All three elements have a clear focus on high quality and safe clinical supervision practice and are based on a sound evidence based, guidelines and best practice.

The course utilises a variety of teaching methods to ensure that the lessons are interesting and relevant to practice. You will find unique expert presentations and relevant key resources. These learning material are essential in meeting the learning outcomes and for completing the competences in practice. 

After the two virtual teaching days, a certificate of completion will then be forwarded to you. You will then need to complete the competencies in practice with the support of a competent mentor/supervisor or colleagues.

The course is equivalent to a minimum of 14 hours CPD (virtual) plus hours to complete competencies in practice.

You are encourage to include both the certificate, learning outcomes and the completed competency framework within your professional portfolio and your work based appraisal process as evidence of your continuing professional development.
