ABSTRACT

Supervision entails the familiar student role of being instructed and evaluated, and also the less familiar and potentially uncomfortable roles of being vulnerable, honest (with one’s supervisor and oneself), refl ective, and insightful. In short, the skills to succeed and gain the most as a supervisee are different than the skills developed in a traditional classroom. This chapter will provide students with an understanding of what these skills are and how to develop them. Specifi cally, models of supervision, responsibilities of supervisors and supervisees, supervisee challenges, and multicultural considerations in supervision are discussed.
