All supervisors register initially by completing the online module HDR Supervision at ANU. It is available to ANU staff through Pulse (for experienced supervisors; for those new to supervision), or through Qualtrics for supervisors who are not ANU staff members.

For those ‘new to supervision’ (not yet supervised an HDR candidate through to completion, in any supervisory panel role), completion of a Foundations of HDR Supervision Workshop is also required for registration.

Panel Chairs or Primary Supervisors who are not ANU staff members are required to register as above (although the online content will be delivered through Qualtrics rather than Pulse). Associate Supervisors who are external to ANU are not required to register, although they are welcome to do so, and encouraged to participate in development activities.

Initial registration is completed only once.
