SUPERVISION COURSES AND SUPERVISION WORKSHOPS AND THE AUSTRALIAN QUALIFICATION FRAMEWORK
​
The Australian Qualification Framework (AQF), first introduced in 1995, is the national policy for regulated qualifications in Australian education and training, incorporating the qualifications from each education and training sector into a single comprehensive national qualifications framework, with the purpose to underpin the national system of qualifications in Australia encompassing higher education, vocational education and training and schools. For further information go to: http://www.aqf.edu.au/.
Both, the AQF accredited courses and the Non-AQF accredited workshops below are provided in professional rooms or on site and can be customised to meet the needs of the organisation, educational institution, or association.
SUPERVISION COURSES
AQF - ACCREDITED
The (69828) Certificate IV in Counselling Supervision (2007-2010), the first nationally accredited course in counselling supervision in Australia, designed and developed in consultation with the Australian Counselling Association (ACA).
The (69795) Graduate Diploma of Counselling Supervision (2010 - 2015), designed and developed in consultation with the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) and the students from the (69828) Certificate IV in Counselling Supervision (members from ACA, FVC/CV, PACFA, CAPAV, APS, and PCA Tasmania) (2010-2015).
Both supervision programs embrace an integrative approach to supervision. The course design is structured on generic knowledge, skills and attributes of a supervisor from my latest research.
