Summary:Clearly delineated, measureable learning objectives guide most educational enterprises today. Psychoanalytic supervision is no exception. Other types of psychotherapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), have clear objectives that guide both supervision and assessment. A review of the various sets of objectives that have been outlined for psychoanalytic supervision reveals that they share most of their basic tenets. Using objectives for supervision has clear advantages for candidates, the supervisory dyad, psychoanalytic institutes, and the field at large. Widespread use of objectives may be facilitated by having individual institutes develop their own objectives based on consensually agreed upon broadly outlined templates.
