Workshop Description
Field supervisors require support, education, and training but need access to such materials in ‘bite size’ segments. Building on knowledge about how to provide high-quality social work supervision, this session will focus on Kadushin’s model of supervision. This model includes three distinct elements: 1) administrative 2) supportive and 3) supervision. The presentation will use this framework to describe ways to provide high-quality supervision to interns that moves beyond administrative aspects to a holistic view of adult learning. The presenters will use case studies, role plays, and interactive discussions to describe ways to build confidence in providing energized, and transformative supervision. 

Learning Objectives

After the completion of this webinar, participants will be able to:

• Describe the tenets of effective supervision.
• Explain frameworks and methods to guide and mentor social work field interns. 
• Describe ways to provide balanced feedback to social work field interns.
