In 2024, we partnered with women GPs to design resources to support and encourage more women to step into GP supervision roles – helping grow the next generation of GP supervisors.
Women GPs told us they wanted information to orient them to the role of GP supervision, map the supervisor career pathway, and hear stories from other women GP supervisors. This program is a response to that call, celebrating the unique role women GPs play in inspiring and empowering the next generation of women GPs supervisors.
We invite women GPs – new or returning to supervision – to complete a pre-program survey as part of our ‘Orientation to Supervision’ program evaluation. We also welcome all new fellows, GPs and GP supervisors interested in learning more about supervision to take part.
This multi-modal program comprises information sheets, video vignettes about GP supervision, and a webinar.
Clear supervision requirements | Easy-to-navigate guidance on what GP supervision involves |
Relevant and practical | Key insights to help you decide if supervision is right for you |
Grounded in lived experience | Real stories and advice for women GP supervisors |
Commitment clarity | Know what’s expected – time, responsibilities and more |
Flexible access | Multi-modal resources designed for busy schedules – access information anytime, anywhere |
This program is primarily targeted for women GPs who are contemplating supervision, new to supervision, or considering returning to it.
While the program was designed with the needs of women in mind, participation is open to all new fellows, GPs and GP supervisors – everyone is welcome.
Watch the videos below to hear insights from aspiring and experienced GP supervisors.
