The supervision journey
Watch this videoscribe animation, voiced by Professor Veena Rodrigues, which shows the stages through the supervision journey.
There are several models of clinical supervision.
One commonly used model, based on learning theory, suggests that within the supervision journey learners move continually through four stages of competence, progressing gradually from unconscious incompetence to conscious incompetence, conscious competence, and finally to unconscious competence.
The role of the supervisor is to enable a trainee to move through these four stages safely and with support, so that they’re learning progresses effectively until they become fully competent.
