Abstract
Practicing behavior analysts and behavior analysts in academic settings often provide supervision for young professionals who are pursuing certification as a behavior analyst. Effective supervision is critical to the quality of ongoing behavioral services, the professional development of the supervisee, the continued growth of the supervisor, and the overall development of our field and its' practice. Though there are now training and CEU requirements for supervising those who are accruing hours towards the experience requirement for certification; few resources exist to guide supervisor activities and recommended practice. This workshop summarizes the content of Building and Sustaining Meaningful and Effective Relationships as a Supervisor and Mentor by LeBlanc, Sellers, & Ala'I (2020) with detailed strategies and resources for instructing the supervisory experience and ongoing mentorship. The topics covered include a) building the relationship, b) using self-reflection as a tool to enhance your supervisor skills, c) what to teach supervisees, and d) how to evaluate the effects of your supervisory activities.
