Child Welfare Supervisor Learning Collaborative

In recognition of the vital and challenging role supervisors play in the work of child welfare, the Northern Academy provides quarterly learning collaboratives and complementary learning circles as opportunities for child welfare supervisors to network and share ideas, successes, and challenges around supervision. These collaborative learning opportunities will give supervisors a safe space to learn about and share new tools, techniques, and strategies to enhance quality supervision that helps support, develop and retain social workers.

The complementary learning circles provide an additional opportunity for coaching, support, and peer-to-peer sharing as supervisors try on new approaches to supervision.

Topics are generated by participant interest. Upcoming sessions will focus on performance management, discipline, and evaluation strategies utilizing a coaching mindset including techniques to address implicit bias.
