This three-day training program is designed to equip supervisors with a comprehensive understanding of Family, Domestic, and Sexual Violence (FDSV) and its significant impact on the supervision process. Grounded in clinical supervision principles and informed by best practices in family violence response across Australia, the training supports supervisors to create safe, reflective, and accountable spaces that prioritise staff wellbeing and effective service delivery. Participants will learn to embed trauma-informed, culturally safe, and person-centred approaches within supervision, enabling them to respond to the complex dynamics of FDSV in practice. The program also strengthens supervisors’ capacity to recognise signs of trauma, manage risk and safety disclosures, and support staff working with victim-survivors and individuals using violence. By linking supervision directly to effective family violence responses, this training ensures that supervisors can lead with clarity, compassion, and confidence in high-pressure environments while also maintaining ethical, legal, and relational integrity.

This course is currently with the ACA for endorsement as a recognised training course in supervision.
