    Description
    The California Mental Health Services Authority (CalMHSA) Peer certification standards require that Peer certification program, such as the current Peer Mentor Certificate through San Jose City College, include a component on supervision connected to the certification process. SAMHSA-based Peer Support Specialist Supervision Training will include the administrative, educative and supportive functions of a peer supervisor, as well as essential functions of supervisors and a strengths-based supervision approach. This course will address ethics and boundary issues, integration of peer workers in the workplace, as well as selected competencies for peer supervisors.
