Abstract

The need for a common understanding and implementation of an accountable and sustainable curriculum on supervision in counseling is deferred far too long in Hong Kong. This article first distilled experiences from both the United States and Britain, then situated a detailed discussion on the nature of supervision within the context of the current public policy reforms. It then went on to build a set of theoretical and practical assumptions which boldly saw the new curriculum as, at once, input, content, and outcome in context as well as praxis. This new curriculum is currently being road-tested under a supportive supervision scheme in a collaborative effort between a professional association and a team of consultant supervisors and trainers from a university, the first ever introduced in Hong Kong. The scheme aims to build professional capacity in certified supervisors for the counseling profession.

摘要

專業輔導／諮詢服務在香港已有三十多年歷史，但對於英、美一些專業學會對輔導師接受督導的嚴格要求，卻長久未有專注的規劃，原因之一可能與合格督導師的供求失衡情況有關。本文基於在香港研發的一個督導師培訓課程，提出一套嶄新而又完整的理論基礎和實踐導向。課程結構的獨特之處在於綜合了投入和成果、內容與實踐。課程的核心價值是將培訓內容建基於督導師在多種權力運用的演化上，從而提升成為個人道德的一種日常實踐。在香港，這種對專業輔導／諮詢服務中督導培訓的再規劃屬先行者，對解決合格督導師的供求失衡問題能有一定貢獻。
