Supervision is the discipline of enabling professional practitioners-such as social workers, counsellors, spiritual directors, ministers, principals, and so on-to reflect on their practice, become mindful of their blind spots, gain ever-deepening insight, and become open to opportunities for personal and professional growth. The Australian Association of Supervision speaks of supervision "as a contractual, relational, collaborative process, which facilitates the ethical and professional practice of the supervisee."

The Graduate Diploma in Supervision enables you to develop advanced knowledge and skills suited to the ethical, self-aware and safe practice of supervision across a number of fields, including health care, education and social service settings.

Supervisors not only require practical skills, but also need to develop a framework within which to understand their practice of supervision. This framework must emerge from authentic, ongoing and critical self-reflection, engage contemporary psychological paradigms responsibly, be situated within clear and overt ethical boundaries, and take into account the meaning-making dimension of human beings-spirituality. To operate at an advanced level, supervisors need to understand how their role fits within the context of organisations and their governance, and to develop their supervisory skills through extended, supervised practice.

Through the Graduate Diploma in Supervision, develop your personal, psychological, ethical, organisational and spiritual understandings, as well as sophisticated supervision frameworks. You will also be provided with opportunities to enhance and extend your practical skills in supervision.
