Objectives
By independently studying pre-recorded lectures before attending the course, delegates will understand the tools utilised in the supervision of trainees, and how to apply them. These tools include:
• Feedback
• Appraisal
• Formative assessment of WBAs
• Assessment meetings with trainees
• Support of trainees in difficulty
By attending the course delegates will take part in multiple intensively-facilitated small-group practical sessions during which they will fine-tune their skills to apply these tools. They will practise how best to:
• use objective setting to stimulate and direct learning
• motivate trainees through feedback
• improve learning from formative assessment (eg: WBAs)
• make accurate summative assessments for supervisor reports
• develop action plans through which to monitor progress
• guide personal and professional development
• talk to trainees about their shortcomings
• use questions to solve problems
