Supervising peers is largely the same as supervising anyone else -- however there are some differences. There can also be challenges when you are also a peer. This class looks to discuss some of the critical mistakes peers make when supervising other peers to help you be a better supervisor.

Please note: This class is for peers supervising peers. If you are not a peer you are still welcome to attend, but the information is geared toward peers supervising peers. Thank you.


Learning Objectives:

Setting boundaries -- just because you can relate, doesn't mean it's okay
