ABSTRACT
This chapter draws on our experience of teaching and supervising in India and in the UK.
In 2011 we accepted an invitation to teach a condensed CAT practitioner course within the psychology department of a small university in Bangalore. Our input comes towards the end of the two year Masters programme in Clinical and Counselling Psychology and covers broadly the same topics as the UK practitioner courses in four fi ve-day modules. We also offer Skype-based supervision in small groups to graduates of these programmes who want to become accredited by the Indian Association of Cognitive Analytic Therapy (IACAT) as fully-fl edged practitioners. We regard the distinction between ‘teaching’ and ‘supervision’ as somewhat artifi cial as we place a lot of emphasis on case based learning throughout the ‘teaching’.
