- Registration Closed
Tuesday, September 16, 2025
1:00 PM - 3:00 PM ET
.2 ASHA CEUs
This webinar qualifies for ASHA's Supervision CEU requirements.
Feedback is the most powerful and diverse tool supervisors use when providing clinical instruction, guidance, and mentorship; however, it is also the most misused tool. Feedback is not a “one size fits all” approach but one impacted by factors such as generational differences, purposeful application of learning theories, and should be provided with the intent and purpose to encourage the development of clinical expertise and clinical reasoning skills. This session will discuss feedback methodology through the lens of learning theory, supervision frameworks, and aspects of generational differences. Attendees will leave with tangible ways to utilize feedback mechanisms and how to best prepare the clinical supervisors associated with their clinical education programs to utilize the feedback tool.
Learning Objectives
- Identify a supervision style and a feedback methodology on each stage of a supervision continuum.
- Name three types of feedback to use in order to effectively communicate and navigate difficult clinical conversations with a student.
- Examine at least two generational trends which shape our feedback and impact our approach to mentorship.

This course is designed with a participation requirement that ensures meaningful engagement and learning. Participants must be present for the entire 120-minute webinar to receive the assessment. The assessment is a key component in obtaining both their certificate of completion and ASHA CEUs. In addition to standard assessments of the speaker's effectiveness and the overall content quality, participants are challenged to demonstrate practical application of the knowledge gained. The required question prompts participants to articulate and list two specific action items they plan to implement. This promotes critical thinking about how to apply new information in their professional practice with a forward-thinking response.
