Training supervision as a separate faculty role

Abstract
Training supervision is a longitudinal, nonclinically focused personal relationship between a faculty member and a resident for exploring the latter''s professional development. The training supervisor meets monthly with the supervisee over the 3-yr [psychiatric] residency in the program discussed. The training supervisor''s role is that of a nonevaluative senior colleague who orients and advises the resident and systematically reviews training progress and problems. The evolution of the training supervision concept is discussed, and the potential role conflicts for the training supervisor, who may serve other functions in the residency of the supervisee, are explored; positive and negative resident and faculty evaluations of their program are presented.
