One of the most common comments we hear when working with staff on support and supervision is that it has become very task focused. The balance of the process has gone out of kilter.

This course is aimed at people who have responsibility for offering one to one support and supervision to staff and/or volunteers. It is designed to meet the needs of those who are new to the role and those who would like to refresh or deepen their skills and knowledge.

Course Aim:

For new and experienced supervisors, managers and team leaders to refresh or deepen their supervision skills and knowledge.

By the end of the course you will be able to:

  • Describe the aims, key functions and potential benefits of effective support and supervision
  • Negotiating and using support and supervision contracting which provide robust structure to this key organisational encounter.
  • Give effective feedback
  • Learn and practice a simple structure to encourage and support staff to reflect on their work practice
  • Use a model to support staff reach their potential is any area of their work
  • Provide significant underpinning theoretical frameworks and tools that create effective supervision.

The course is designed to encourage lots of discussion, sharing of ideas and learning from each other as well as direct input from the trainer. There will be a number of small group activities, various practise sessions and time for reflection and action planning will be built in to the course.
