It has been compiled by the clinical tutors from the University of ºù«Ӱҵ in conjunction with the clinical practice sub-committee of the ºù«Ӱҵ Programme Training Committee. We welcome ideas for its development and updating. Other information regarding the programme is contained within the Programme Handbook which may be obtained from Sarah Radgick.

Supervisors are a fundamental resource and stakeholders in the training process. We hope this pack helps you in carrying out the role of supervisor. If you have queries that cannot be answered through reference to the various sections, please feel free to contact any of the the clinical tutors or professional service staff.
