TIPS FOR CHECKING YOUR ACTIONS AND MEASURES Are your actions really actions? Are your measures observable? Have you identified in your actions when/how your supervisor will observe your practice both assessment and intervention? You need to have four sessions of practice observation in first six weeks and a further two prior to submission of your midway report. Do you have different strategies/actions for cultural responsiveness across the competencies?
REVIEW OF THE SPIP Your SPIP will be reviewed by two assessors to determine whether the proposed actions will provide you with opportunity to demonstrate the competencies. You may need to undertake some revisions to ensure you have a solid plan. If required, you may be offered an opportunity to discuss your plan to enable you to undertake the revisions. This does not necessarily impact on your ability to progress with your SPIP.
REFLECTIONS AND REPORTS Develop a regular, at least weekly, reflection time to write up what you have done/learnt from undertaking your actions. This should not be a reiteration of your actions. When you have undertaken all the proposed actions, you and your supervisor can sign off that they have been completed. You do not need to have completed everything when submitting your midway report. Supervisor also provides overall commentary on your progress.
