Testimonials

I thoroughly enjoyed this course. It not only strengthened my understanding of my role, but gave me a deeper appreciation for the skill, knowledge and intentionality that effective supervisors use to support learners. This course is an excellent starting point for anyone considering further study in health professions education, and is a course I would happily recommend to others.
