Advanced Practitioner Supervisor Training Programme

We are looking to develop an Advanced Practitioner Supervisor Training Programme here within SNEE and are wanting to reach out to you to see if this may be something you may be interested in exploring further. 

The programme will be aimed at those Advanced Practitioners who are keen to supervise other trainee Advanced Practitioners on their pathways.  The programme will consist of a workbook to be completed, plus some face to face or virtual sessions (possible 2 half days or one full day).  These resources were developed and endorsed by the EoE Faculty for Advancing Practice. Please see resources here

On completion, there will be a certificate issued and NHSE are able to recognise this moving forwards.

Who can supervise?

Supervisors:

  • Come from the multi-professional workforce and do not need to hold the same professional registration as the trainee.
  • Have expert knowledge of the area of practice they are supervising.
  • Have experience as an educator and are a skilled facilitator able to support learning, development, assessment and verification of competence and capability.

Minimum Standards:

If the co-ordinating education supervisor is an advanced practitioner:

  • must have been working at advanced level for a minimum of 3 years. There should be clear justification for an advanced practitioner with less than 3 years’ experience undertaking this role.

This checklist is also a helpful guide for aspirational supervisors: Supervisor-readiness-checklist.docx
