Course Information

Supervision Training:Level 2

When: 21 Jul 2022 - 22 Jul 2022
Where: Online Event
Tutors: Alison Evans, Pamela Duckerin

This course will be taught experientially as we engage together in a process of mindful exploration and inquiry to deepen our practice as supervisors.

This 2-day course builds upon the 3-day mindfulness-based supervision training. We will continue to deepen our work with using embodied inquiry within mindfulness-based supervision, using the mindfulness-based supervision framework. Discussion and skills practise will focus on furthering our understanding of different aspects of mindfulness-based supervision, including the use of the MBI:TAC/TLC, reviewing supervision, agenda setting, supervision of supervision (supra-vision).

We will dedicate time to exploring mindfulness-based supervision in group formats. Time will be given to brief periods of practice, reflective time and exploring together in dialogue in small and large groups as we learn through our individual and collective experience. Participants will be invited to bring their experiences of supervising to the training to support our collective learning. The intention is to create an open, spacious learning environment, which will encourage and support spontaneity and creativity.
