Supervisor Training in NVR-informed Clinical Supervision

Train with the leading & award-winning provider of Non-Violent Resistance Training for Professionals

Our Non-Violent Resistance (NVR) Supervisor training course enables participants to enhance their skills so that they can support NVR Practitioners requiring Supervision. Practitioners require clinical supervision to support them in their work with NVR, so they can maximise their effectiveness and safely manage risk. This can only be delivered safely by professionals who are proficient in the delivery of NVR, and who have received additional training in recognising and addressing the supervisory needs of practitioners working within the approach. 

The training is highly recommended for NVR Professionals who have already completed their Advanced Level Training.

Meet the trainers: An Introduction to the Supervisor Training Course

About the course

This training and consultation module helps supervisors develop support structures for NVR practitioners and deals with questions such as:

– What skills, competencies, knowledge and understandings has the supervisor gained in their own practice involving NVR? How has this shaped them as a person and as a professional?

– What is the participants own relationship with seeking help and support?

– What are the specific supervisory needs of practitioners using NVR? What impasses in practice do they need to help their supervisees overcome?

– In which ways, and using which methods can a supervisor address their supervisees’ needs?

– What is the overall structure of support for NVR practice within the supervisor’s organisation? How does this support structure need to change or improve, to enable safe, effective and efficient practice of NVR?

The training takes places over three full days. Day one will be delivered online. Participants will be set learning tasks to complete before days two and three which will take place in person 3 weeks later. Learning tasks will include working online with another participant (PP will identify a buddy for you to work with) for two, hour-long, peer supervision sessions while keeping a record of experiences and learning.

Face to face was lovely. Loved the filmed supervision and exercises. Occasionally participants were able to take the conversation away from supervision …I have been reflecting on how I could’ve resisted this more actively though! Lovely group, really energising and rich. Thank you

Jill and Julie were fantastic, knowledgeable, supportive, present, modelling NVR with every fibre. Roehampton Elms Grove is like an old familiar setting to me now and the standards never fail to be higher than my expectations. My fellow trainees were fully invested, sharing generously and appropriately continuously.

I valued the pre reading ahead of the course. I enjoyed the large and small group exercies. I like that the training is delivered via zoom and face to face. I am looking up to work closely with my buddy in between session and reflecting on that experience. Really enjoyed sharing a space with other practitioners with shared values, language and passion for NVR. Really valued the opportunity to hear other people’s experiences and appreciate the different contexts and how the principles of NVR will be applied in their practice as a supervisor.

the format of the training was very good, it was helpful that it did not rely on powerpoint and there was opportunity for discussion and practice. The trainer was extremely knowledgeable, skilled and enthusiastic. The venue was very good

A good variety of activities and a lot of active participation kept the energy high. There was plenty of opportunity for discussion and to practice skills.

A list of participants in advance would have been interesting and useful in relation to networking opportunities. I would have preferred a clearer connection between the powerpoint and the oral presentation of the training materials.

Why take the course?

This course is highly recommended for NVR Professionals who have already completed their Advanced Level training.

This training develops the skill-base for specific ‘clinical’ supervision in NVR; this is particularly necessary for workforce development, risk management and safe, competent practice: working with issues relating to aggression, violence, destructive behaviour and trauma is especially taxing to the individual frontline practitioner, who requires high-level expert support to prevent burn-out or secondary traumatisation and maintain their emotional well-being.

Expert supervision ensures that these workers perform at a high level of competence; they need their own support network, in the same way that they promote the family’s development of a functional support network when working with NVR.

Learning Outcomes

– Participants will explore and deepen their understanding of their own relationship with seeking support and with principles of NVR

– Participants will learn to recognise supervisory needs specific to the practice of NVR.

– Participants will be introduced to supervision methods which can address these needs.

– Supervisors will be introduced to the specific use of reflecting team methods in the delivery of NVR.

– Eligibility to become an NVRA accredited supervisor should you wish – See NVRA website for details of their accreditation process. Note: The PartnershipProjects Supervisor Training provides you with the necessary skills and competencies to practice as a supervisor in NVR without further accreditation being necessary.
