Guidance on the Benefits and Delivery of Supervision in the Career Development Sector
In response to requests from CDI Members, the CDI Guidance on the Benefits and Delivery of Supervision report has been written by Registered Career Development Professionals, Rachel Mallows and John Walker, supported by the CDI’s Professional Standards Committee and Head of Professional Development and Standards.

The guidance covers the following areas:
- Key Benefits of supervision;
- Definitions of supervision;

- Explanation of the two forms of supervision;
- Internal and External Supervision;
- Reflective Practice in supervision;
- Models of supervision;

- Skills of the supervisee;
- What can help things go right;
- What happens if things go wrong;
- Case Studies;
