Building professional supervision capacity is a continuous journey. To support practitioners working with scalable psychological interventions, we have designed a comprehensive, multi-stage learning pathway: 🔹 Level 1 (Basic Level): A 16-hour practical training focusing on fundamental supervision competencies, structuring safe sessions, using core techniques, and addressing initial challenges. 🔹 Level 2 (Advanced Level): A 16-hour deep-dive for experienced supervisors focusing on reflective practice, complex group dynamics, ethical dilemmas, and supporting supervisees through distress. 🔹 Practical Component: Following Level 2, participants engage in 6 group practical sessions (12 hours total) over 6 months to consolidate their skills in real-world practice with trainer feedback. Our expert trainer Anna Zubachova will deliver this programme again in Ukranian.
