Adapted from Falender et al., 2004, p778<br />

Based on the micro-skills outlined in competency number six, assessment of<br />

supervisor competencies, evaluation of clinical supervision should ideally incorporate<br />

the following elements:<br />

• Certificate of completion of some form of continuing professional education<br />

(e.g., course, workshop) in clinical supervision<br />

• Documentation that the supervisor has had supervision that focuses on his or her<br />

role as supervisor, and recommendations (with follow-up and development plan)<br />
