Supervision
Supervision is the backbone of the CACFT/ACTCF community; it is how we maintain tradition and cultivate innovation. It honours the breadth of experience and perspective among our members; it celebrates diversity. It is through supervision that we support those who are learning and growing in the profession; it is also how we ensure that our members continue to adhere to rigorous ethical standards.
