Clinical supervision is a core competency area within the chaplaincy and counseling fields and essential to the development of competent clinicians. Although face-to-face formats have been traditionally used in the provision of clinical supervision, advances in telecommunication and the changing nature of clinical practice have led to greater growth and support for the use of computer-based technologies in supervision. This webinar will focus on understanding how telesupervision may be similar or different from face-to-face supervision, identify best practices in telesupervision, and most importantly understand the ethical and cultural considerations in telesupervision.

Apply and evaluate best practices in telesupervision
