Managing risk and boundaries in supervision
This course is designed to explore the ways in which risk(s) may be considered and boundaries may be attended to and maintained within supervision. These issues are ever present within supervision but may dominate supervision or be neglected. This course will consider the issues that can arise if we over or under focus on these issues and how we might effectively focus on risk(s) and boundaries within supervision.
This course is made up of a series of videos, each focusing on a different aspect of risk and boundaries in supervision. The videos are accompanied by activities to embed your learning, and you can progress through the course at your own pace.
This course is designed to be completed in approximately 2.5 hours. This course is available in English only.
Once you have completed this course, you will receive a Certificate of Completion.

Is this course right for me?
This course is designed for both established/experienced supervisors and those new to providing supervision to others. The session will consider risk and boundaries across settings and specialties, therefore the content may be relevant for psychologists supervising work in any applied setting. It is expected that learners will have some formal training in providing supervision (e.g. as evidenced by appearing on the BPS Register of Applied Psychology Practice Supervisors).
