Supervision as Collaboration in the Human Services
Building a Learning Culture

A very comprehensive resource, dealing with a variety of settings. Students on this course are experienced in many areas of social care, so this source offers something of interest on the topic of supervision in a way that appeals to them, while also facilitating a greater understanding of what effective supervision should be, and how to provide it.
