Overview
In this course, you’ll learn how to use the FPM Reflective Practice Handbook to guide practitioners to reflect on their work with families and colleagues. Reflective supervision is a collaborative process that promotes professional development by encouraging service providers to reflect on their thoughts, feelings, and experiences within their work, ultimately enhancing their effectiveness and well-being.
This training requires the participants training to be FPM Reflective Supervisors to have an active and well developed understanding of the family partnership model. The learning method is primarily through experiential learning, where all participants are actively involved in discussions, reflective practice and skills practice sessions. Participants are also asked to use one online device per person throughout the 4-day training and participants are also asked to engage in 1 hour of home tasks each week.
Clinical Supervisors are required to have completed the FPM foundation training, and non-clinical staff are required to have completed the 2 Day FPM overview training prior to undertaking the FPM Reflective Supervision Training.
