Pupil Services Field Supervision and Mentoring Modules

Getting Started

Welcome to the Field Supervision and Mentoring for Pupil Services Professionals online learning modules.

The content presented here was developed through a partnership with the Department of Public Instruction (DPI) and faculty from the School Psychology Program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The training is made possible through funding from a Federal School Based Mental Health Professionals Grant and was developed using a collaborative process that involved several key stakeholders, including representatives from each of the primary pupil services disciplines. 

These modules are intended to serve as an introductory training on field supervision and mentoring of pupil services professionals, namely school psychologists, school counselors, and school social workers. Both modules include information, resources, practical exercises and reflection activities.
