Our online Clinical Supervision training consists of two, three-day courses. Both courses include an orientation and pre-reading package that will take two to four hours to complete. We will send you the orientation and pre-reading items two weeks before the class starts.
To complete each course, you must pass a final assignment that is due one week after the course ends. The assignments will be relevant to your practice as a clinical supervisor. In our experience, the time for assignment preparation depends on your working style and practice context. But you will need several hours to complete it. Assignments may include group work, role play, or written submissions. We will provide further information about the assignment during the course.

Tuition total for both courses is approximately $1,400.00 + a Learner Services Fee (LSF)
