Introduction

1It’s remarkable that there are so many wonderful supervisors out there, because most of them are likely self-taught. Although doctoral programs accredited by the American Psychological Association (APA) are required to include specific coursework in supervision (APA, 2006), it is not a component of the Standards for Graduate Preparation of School Psychologists that govern Specialist-level training for programs approved by the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP, 2010). It is therefore likely that many of the approximately 75% of school psychologists who do not hold a doctoral degree (Curtis, Castillo, & Gelley, 2012) have not had a formal graduate course on supervision. In fact, some studies indicate that only 15–20% of supervising school psychologists have completed graduate coursework on supervision (Cochrane, Salyers, & Ding, 2010; Flanagan & Grehan, 2011).
