Overview:
This workshop reviews the basic components of supervision, locates group supervision and reflective practice within a competency-based framework, introduces evidence-based and practice-informed principles
of group process and group supervision, and provides participants with a framework for (peer) group supervision practice, together with opportunity for consolidation through experiential exercises.
Learning Outcomes:
At the completion of the workshop, participants will be able to:
Describe the principles underlying group supervision and reflective practice within a competency-based approach to supervision
Demonstrate knowledge of evidence-based and practice-informed principles of group supervision processes
Demonstrate skills in establishing a peer supervision group, and then leading group participants through a number of group supervision tasks
Demonstrate the use of reflective feedback and evaluation of group process
Methods/Activities:
The workshop utilises adult learning principles:
Pre-reading of key materials and preparation of reflective material from participant’s own supervisory experience (one page Notable Incident)
Discussion of participants workshop goals and relevant previous experience
Interactive didactic presentation of evidence-based content
Small group discussions of key concepts
Live and video demonstrations
Experiential exercises
Larger group reflections of key content and learning from exercises
Evaluation:
There are three (3) methods of evaluation to help participants to consolidate workshop materials, and to ensure that participants have demonstrated competence:
Demonstration of reflective practice via preparation of Notable Incident from group process experience
Demonstration of knowledge via achieving at least 80% on a post-workshop assessment task (6 questions)
Demonstration of group supervision skills and attitudes via achieving at least 80% on the Leeds Alliance in Supervision Scale from peers following a small group experiential exercise
Terms and Conditions
Customer Service Processes:
Payments will be taken using Credit Card (via Stripe or PayPal), with an email to confirm payment and official receipt. Invoices can be issued for those participants who require them. Workshop bookings will only be confirmed once full payment has been received.

Transfer of the place to a colleague or a future date is permissible with written application prior to the workshop date. Workshops may need to be cancelled if there are insufficient numbers in which case 100% refund will be given. (NB: no webinars have actually been cancelled). The cancellation policy is clearly stated on the registration form and applications are only accepted if the applicant ticks the box to agree that they have read and understood them.
Certificates:
Masterclass completion certificates will be emailed following the workshop to all participants. Supervisors who require a competence certificate for AHPRA to fulfil CPD requirements will need to demonstrate competence in supervisory practice through scoring at least 80% on the assessment task (multiple choice quiz). Opportunities to resubmit will be provided until participants score at least 80% on the re-submitted assessment task. Some workshops also require participants to email a reflective exercise that is retained by RST in a password-protected electronic file for audit purposes.
