Welcome to our supervision resource pages. They include essential information on all things supervision: How to find a supervisor, how to use supervision, and how often to access supervision. Also included are details of our supervision taster sessions, the latest blog posts and podcast episodes, our special interest group, and key mental health and wellbeing resources for supervisors.
We’re pleased to be hosting a new series of eight workshops, running throughout 2026, which will explore all eight competencies in the newly-updated Supervision Competence Framework. The workshops, which are for supervisors and supervisees, will stimulate thinking, raise new questions, and open up conversations about best practice in supervision. See a video introduction (above) to the series by two of the facilitators, Jo Birch and Jo Cleary, and a blog post about the series by Paul Heardman.
Podcasts focusing on coaching supervision have been airing on the EMCC UK podcast since 2023, and we now have a good back catalogue of episodes covering a wide range of supervision issues. Explore here on our Supervision podcasts page.
New: Sandra Wilson hosts a series of three new podcasts, focusing on the transformative power of supervision in coaching and mentoring. She talks in a video blog about the episodes, and why they make such good listening for coaches, mentors, and anyone thinking of becoming a supervisor.

Mental health and wellbeing topics arise frequently in both coaching and supervision. Attending to these appropriately in supervision is an important task of the supervisor. We have curated a range of resources which focus on the restorative function of supervision, including books, podcasts, research articles and practitioner tools. Find them here.
Our supervision special interest group meets every quarter for informal peer networking or coaching, guest speakers, and panel discussions. The group is curious about knowledge and practice, opportunities and barriers, relationships and systems. It’s a space for exploration, reflection and connection, whether you’re just beginning to consider supervision or are already well established.
The EMCC UK supervision community group on LinkedIn is open to everyone interested in being part of the EMCC UK supervision community. The purpose of the group is to build a sense of community on supervision-related topics. It is for supervisors interested in connecting and sharing with fellow supervisors, and for coaches and mentors who want to explore supervision issues, including how to get the most out of their own supervision.
Explore some of the essentials of supervision in our supervision FAQs – including the definition and purpose of supervision, how much supervision is right, how to select a supervisor, and the importance of the EMCC Supervision Competence Framework.
