Comments from previous attendees:

• "Seniors, Leaders, Supervisors need to attend this session and get to discussing how to maintain or begin approaching conversations in a more supportive way that isn't made up on the fly, but structured. This course offers great theory for why conversations should be supportive and also covers where to start."
• "It is a valuable resource for both new and established supervisors to give either a foundation for, or continue to tweak their supervision skills and style."
