The HFA Supervisor Core Training: Relationships and Reflection is a 3.5-day intensive model-specific blended learning experience that meets HFA Best Practice Standard 10-4.C requirements around role-specific training for HFA Supervisors.
Please Note: Supervisors should complete Foundations for Family Support Core Training prior to attending HFA Supervisor Core: Relationships and Reflection.
HFA Supervisor Core: Relationships and Reflection applies the foundational concepts of HFA that are introduced in Foundations for Family Support to the Supervisor role via the parallel process. Supervisors can expect to develop skills to support HFA Direct Service staff through reflective supervision and use of HFA Reflective Strategies in supervision and to understand the expectations and responsibilities of the Supervisor role as expressed in the HFA Best Practice Standards. This training begins with the HFA Advantage and the four components of attachment and applies them to the development of healthy supervisory relationships that build staff skills and hold space for staff feelings and reflections on the impact of this work. Supervisors will practice documentation, respond to supervisory scenarios, and have hands-on practice implementing skills related to supervision. By the end of the training, supervisors will develop plans for their continued growth in their role that they can implement over time.
