Research in Practice is offering new in-depth reflective supervision and practice leadership courses combining theory, practice and culture for practice supervisors, middle and senior leaders.
Develop knowledge, skills and values, using a range of evidence-informed approaches to increase confidence in providing reflective supervision. We are offering dedicated modular programmes for organisations seeking to develop and embed a culture of reflective, curious and relational supervision.
The reflective supervision and practice leadership programmes draw on our extensive experience in this area. This includes delivering the Practice Supervisor Development Programme, Mental Health Supervisor Development Programme, Supervisor Development Programme and bespoke programmes in individual organisations.
In a new podcast, Alison Domakin shares tips, tools and techniques for how we ensure truly reflective supervision.
Relevant for any organisation that supports adults, carers, children or families, this programme is aimed at those who have responsibility for supervising practitioners or influence over the organisation's supervision culture.
What is on offer
Our modular Developing Reflective Supervision Programmes support practice supervisors, middle and senior leaders to:
- Develop their knowledge, skills and values, using a range of evidence-informed approaches to increase confidence in providing reflective supervision.
- Embed their capacity for critical self-reflective skills, enabling them to remain focused, analytical, authoritative, ethical and professional as well as use constructive challenge in supervisory conversations.
- Strengthen their ability to apply an equity, diversity and inclusion lens to supervision, with a particular focus on anti-racist supervision.
- Enhance their developing practice leadership role and professional identity.
How does it work
Organisations can choose a combination of modules that best meet their learning needs. The programmes can consist of:
-
up to five modules for practice supervisors
-
up to three modules for middle leaders
-
two modules for senior leaders.
Who is it for
The programmes are for anyone working for an organisation that supports adults, carers, children or families, who has responsibility for supervising practitioners or influence over the organisation's supervision culture.
The course is relevant for a wide range of practice supervisors, middle and senior leaders with much of the programme materials drawn from a social work evidence base.
