Unlike other books in the area, all three texts take a unique competence based approach to supervision and management. They incorporate the new emphasis on skills and basis competencies which the MCI, NVQ and others are now promoting. The texts provide all the underpinning knowledge needed to fulfil the competencies set out in the MCI’s supervisory management standards. Each chapter begins and ends with an outline of the relevant MCI standards to help review progress. User friendly – all the texts include chapter summaries, on-going case studies, think points. A tutor’s pack is also available containing further cases, questions, overhead masters and lecture notes.
