The first unit focuses on the skill sets of clinical supervisors. You will explore ways to create safe clinical learning environments and explore ways to develop approaches to clinical teaching in a range of clinical settings. Concepts of reflective practice and communities of practice are critically examined with reference to the ways in which learning is supported in clinical environments. The second unit focuses on educational supervision. You will examine the changing landscapes of postgraduate training and how you support the development of trainees and trainers. You will analyse current approaches to assessment and appraisal and how they can be maximised to support trainee development and progression. You will also develop a differentiated approach to training, including a focus on managing poor performance. Units
