3.3. Intervision and coaching (Peer coaching groups or Individual coaching sessions)

The goal of the intervision and coaching sessions is to address specific issues that you come across in your role as supervisor, and, with the help of your peers and the coach, find out how you can improve a situation of impasse, or further refine your supervisory skills.

Intervision: By joining an intervision group you’ll have the opportunity to share your experiences, give and be given confidential advice together with a small group of colleagues from different faculties of the UG. The group meets regularly every month together with a facilitator to exchange experiences and share good practices in supervision. Feel free to join for 1, 2 or more sessions. 

Coaching: In alternative, you can schedule 1-3 individual sessions with a coach. This is particularly helpful if you are dealing with a specific issue related to supervision or prefer to reflect on a situation in a confidential manner. Individual coaching session is also a mode that some of us prefer to group interaction, so we are happy to offer it.

By the end of the intervision or individual coaching session you will have:

• Addressed specific cases of supervision and received advice from colleagues and coach
• Reflected on the practical application of the theory acquired during the online course and workshops
• Recognized commonalities with other supervisors
• Exchanged expertise and good practices of supervision with peers and coach
• Found a way forward to situations of impasse
