DIPLOMA IN SUPERVISION

“The quality content and delivery of the course materials was superb. I can’t remember having ever been on a course where the breaks were unwelcome, due to my absorption in the issues being discussed.”

DIPLOMA IN SUPERVISION

The 360 Diploma in Supervision is a comprehensive, immersive training programme designed to support practitioners in learning to be professional supervisors, rather than simply do supervision.

Our course provides a supportive and challenging learning environment in which participants develop a strong foundation in the theory and practice of professional supervision. Through experiential exercises, practical skills development, reflective activities and small and large group work, students are encouraged to meaningfully integrate theory into their developing supervisory practice.

Our approach to learning

We believe that self-awareness, reflective practice and an understanding of interpersonal dynamics are fundamental to becoming an effective, ethical and confident supervisor.

The Diploma combines theoretical knowledge with experiential learning, providing opportunities to explore the complexities of the supervisory relationship, including the impact we have on others and the impact our professional experiences have on us.

As this depth of reflection may not have formed part of participants' original professional training, students should be aware that the experiential elements of the course can be personally challenging and may evoke emotional responses. We aim to create a supportive learning environment in which participants can explore these experiences safely and constructively.

Putting theory into practice

A substantial part of the Diploma is practice-based. Students work with real supervisees while receiving external supervision to support the development of their own supervisory practice.

Throughout the programme, students maintain a comprehensive learning portfolio documenting their professional and personal development. This includes reflection on themselves as developing supervisors, their relationships with others, interpersonal dynamics and their understanding of the purpose, tasks and processes of professional supervision.

Who is the Diploma for?

The 360 Diploma in Supervision is a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programme, taught at Level 7, primarily aimed at Registered Sign Language Interpreters and Translators (RSLIs, RSLT's) and practitioners with equivalent professional qualifications.

The training prepares graduates to offer professional supervision to interpreters and practitioners from allied professions.

Applicants are required to have a minimum of three years' post-qualification professional experience.

Our commitment to inclusive learning

We have recently completed our first Diploma with a mixed cohort of Deaf and hearing professionals. This was a valuable learning experience for everyone involved, and we are grateful for the feedback received. We will take these lessons forward as we continue to reflect on and develop our training.
