ABSTRACT:

Supervision as a professional practice appears as a process of continuous social reconstruction of practitioners’ professional competences based on a multi-dimensional educational project. The social construction of supervision aims at transforming supervisory practices into a dialogue process. The socio-constructivist orientation of practice refers to the reflexivity and self-reflexivity of both supervisor and supervisor. It promotes the collaborative generative character of the relationship based on balance and co-construction, in favor of the transfer of resources to the client. Assistantships such as psychology, education, and other areas of human resources can benefit from professional supervision as a way of increasing service quality and professional socialization.

KEYWORDS:
