Fwd: BPS Approved Supervision Training Additional June training dates in London & Manchester

[Courtenay Young]

Maybe we ought to get these guys to come to Scotland - or better still, get the UKCP to organise something similar for registrants in both England and Scotland and possibly even Wales and N. ireland.

Subject: BPS Approved Supervision Training Additional June training dates in London & Manchester

Hi

This is a quick email to let you know that 548 delegates have come to our Essential Supervision Skills course so far.

And its why this British Psychological Society Approved course is running again on 2-3 June in London and 4-5 June in Manchester

If you’re interested in a place however you will have to be quick.

If you’ve already come and found it invaluable please forward this email urgently to a colleague to let them know.

If you haven’t, read on, find out what you’ve been missing and then decide

Much to our surprise, this course has been unprecedentedly popular Why?

Maybe it’s because it’s the only national non-university course providing eligibility for the BPS’ Register of Applied Psychology Supervisors

Have a look at the evidence:

http://www.bps.org.uk/system/files/documents/rapps_approved_courses_v12apr13.pdf

Maybe it’s the early bird price. £230 for two days providing nationally recognised training. That is rare.

Maybe it’s because the course gives you clear, informed advice about what to do as a supervisor and how to do it – irrespective of your professional background

Or maybe it’s simply the glowing feedback we receive. Below is a small selection of recent examples

“Thanks. Never realised that this subject could be both fun and informed. Well done Paul” S.T. Counselling Psychologist Leeds

“There are so many supervision myths around. The section on the research was particularly useful.” D.C. Occupational Therapist Cheshire

“I learnt more from these two days than I have from 12years of practice. I don’t know whether this is good or bad but it’s certainly been really insightful” D.F. Psychotherapist Islington

“The pair work kept the days fresh…so it wasn’t just theoretical. Very practical and will send more staff next time” S.F. Substance Misuse Service Manager West Midlands

There is a problem with the course though. And that’s the fact that numbers we can take are genuinely limited. Every date its run this year so far its been full and why April is already chocka –

The same is likely to go for the new June dates. When the places on these are gone, they’re gone

So book a place book now. Don’t leave it.

I know you won’t be disappointed

You’ll be joining a growing group of supervisors who’ve worked with us. And like them, you’ll become more confident and more knowledgeable in your role as a supervisor.

 

Kind Regards

 

Paul

Hi Courtenay

I think it’s a great idea…  it would be easy to contact the lead for the course you link to and ask what numbers he’d require to run an equivalent in Scotland and scope out if that sounded feasible.  I guess the link to BPS may attract some and put others off – but sharing the advert with colleagues may well result in enough to make it worthwhile.  The feedback looks very positive, and I like the idea of a few days training without having to commit finance and time to a PGCert/MSc which would be the usual route,

Perhaps those attending the meeting in Perth in a few weeks can gain a sense of whether this would be something to pursue… or if there’s a clamour via this group we can just email Paul Graham direct and get it moving ;)

Hi all

I am fully in support of bringing in more training opportunities, and welcome Courtenay’s idea.

Also you may be interested to know that EGI runs an established Supervision training which meets the criteria for UKCP standards for supervisors. There is a course starting in September. For info click the link below:

Feel free to contact me too.

best wishes

Hi Everyone

 

This is clearly a bit of marketing aimed primarily at chartered psychologists.  When we meet in Perth, we could agree to find out what opportunities there are for education and training that meet the UKCP standards.  The UKCP colleges have now got their agreed requirements for approved supervisors, including training standards.

 

I believe that there is a particular interest in opportunities for meeting CPD requirements.  Perhaps a few members would volunteer to develop a database for this.

 

Regards

 

Alastair

Hi Folks,

I have attended training in the past run by Paul Grantham.  He is a very good trainer but his work is slanted very much towards CBT being offered by psychologists. I think it would be great to have a supervision course in Scotland that is UKCP recognised and perhaps aimed at psychotherapists across the colleges.

Best wishes,

Anne Laird

Thanks Anne and Alistair. 

Yes, a UKCP based training would be good.

. I cannot find any messages relating to a Perth meeting.  Surely this is the fault of travel and my computer, but I'd be very gratefulif if someone could send me the details..

Many thanks
