he educational goal of this course is to empower clinicians to be more effective leaders by helping them create meaningful spaces for growth and development.
Description
This continuing education course is designed to assist clinical supervisors in creating meaningful spaces for growth and development. Most clinical supervision experiences are characterized by case review and clock watching, neither of which contribute significantly to the development of the next generation of leaders in our field. Research (Jenkins, 2021) shows that time alone is not an accurate indicator of clinician development. What matters most is the development of key skills associated with a strong clinical focus.
This course will draw upon experiential learning theory (Dewey, 1938), which posits that (1) all genuine education comes about through experience, (2) students must interact with their environment to learn, and (3) all experiences are not created equal. Participants will learn to apply Dewey’s theory to create more meaningful clinical supervision experiences for their supervisees.
