34 perspective an activity dedicated to adult learning, and in pedagogy, adult learning is the subject of andragogy [5]. Freynet proposes the concept of engineering of training, a more complex concept than that of pedagogy and andragogy. Thus, the engineering of training would include all the activities necessary to carry out an adult education project [6]. However, the concept of designing supervisory activities is more appropriate for supervision and refers to all the acts performed by the supervisor and the supervisee throughout the supervision period with [7], [8]: - the establishing of a legal framework and of appropriate ethical consequences from the beginning to the completion of the supervision process; - the establishing of a location where supervision will take place; - the establishing of the supervisee’s learning needs; - the setting of supervision objectives and what is desired to be achieved at the end of activities; - the establishing of a design of activities for individual and group supervision.

If this framework is considered a source, then the specific methods used in a training, personal development or clinical supervision program are [5]: a) Process methods: - Methods centred on the trainer (supervisor), being mainly presentation or informative methods: lecture, demonstration, etc. - Intervention methods focused on the trainee (trainee / supervisee): work group, debates in round table shape, panel discussions, top questions and answers, brainstoming, simulation games, case study etc. - Methods of action, project type, put the accent on what is concretely done after the completion of supervision in working with the client (the therapist applies what s/he understood from supervision). b) Feedback and evaluation methods - Assessment and feedback methods are applied at the end of each individual and group supervision activity.
