Program

Syllabus:

The contents of the Supervision Seminar depend on the internships, which take place in different places within the various areas of specialization of the

Master. Given the wide variety of professional contexts, domains, modalities and intervention strategies, as well as assessment / intervention targets, the

contents of Supervision are adapted to each of the areas in which the Master is organized and, as far as possible, to the types of internships.

The needs assessment, the planning of interventions, the evaluation of results, and their critical analysis are common contents in the supervision of all

internships, regardless of the specialization area in which they are inserted.
