Welcome to the Supervisor Resources Page!

First, our department would like to offer our sincere thanks to you for sharing your time and skills with our students. Our training program would not be possible without you! On this page we have compiled information that we hope you will find helpful as you supervise our master's level students.

What is Supervision?

Supervision is an intervention provided by a more senior member of a profession to a more junior member or members of that same profession. The supervision relationship is:

  • Evaluative
  • Extends over time
  • Enhances professional competency
  • Monitors quality of professional services offered
  • Serves as a gate-keeper for those who enter the profession

(Bernard & Goodyear, 2019)

We ask that you view our Supervisor Resources Module to review basic principles of effective supervision, as well as details about our program. In this module you will learn more about our master's program student learning outcomes, as well practicum and internship requirements

2024-25 Colloquium Series

Each academic year, the Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology Department provides a series of colloquia meant to educate students, faculty, and interested professionals in the community on certain aspects of clinical practice. We bring in practitioners and researchers who have expertise and experience in counseling. The presentations generally take place 2-3 times a semester on Tuesdays from 11:30am-12:30pm, via MS Teams. The Ӱ CECP Department is approved to offer continuing education credits to counselors to Wisconsin psychologists through the WI DRL.

Below is the schedule for this year's department colloquia. Please share this with interested staff at your agency or school. If you are interested, contact Coreen Bukowski for a teams meeting link. We hope to see you there!
