EuroPsy (or European Certificate in Psychology) is a European standard of education, professional training and competence in psychology set by the European Federation of Psychologists’ Associations (EFPA).
The workshop Train the Trainers is offered by EFPA to help (S)NACs and to train supervisors in their country.
The workshop aims to describe the context of the EuroPsy certificate and its implications for supervision of psychological practice of professionals applying for the EuroPsy certificate, as well as to analyze how to help supervisees develop supervisory competences and how to help supervisors evaluate these competences in line with the EuroPsy model of competences, through participative reflection exercises focused on supervisory behaviours and competences.
The first part will address the rationale of EuroPsy, the model of competences, the basic and specialized certificate, the challenges for supervision and an overview of the supervision process. The second part will analyze and evaluate the supervisory competences, address the evaluation of supervisees and will analyze real experiences from supervision.
Application is by invitation. Participation is limited to one trainer/country/NAC, plus one trainer for those countries that have a S-NAC one trainer/country/S-NAC. It is up to the (S)NAC to appoint the person that will follow the training.
