This Reflective Practice: The Role of Clinical Supervision short course is the third one in a series of courses. Continuous Professional Development (CPD) is a process of lifelong learning. Furthermore, it enables care professionals to expand and fulfil their own potential. Also in social care, CPD is central to the delivery of quality care.

Reflective Practice is a way of reviewing and analysing your experiences to make sense of and improve your work. Moreover, by doing so, care professionals can identify areas of success and those requiring improvement. Therefore, enabling a more informed and proactive approach to personal and professional development.
