This document represents results of the testing and evaluation process of the revised POST supervisory course based on the performance objectives contained in the POST report "A final report on revision of the post supervisory and management courses." This report completes the supervisory course revision project up to the implementation phase. Implementation should be completed, on a statewide basis, by July 1, 1978.
One of the most difficult transitions in any organization is the promotion from line to supervisory duties. Not only are there new job tasks and responsibilities, it is perhaps the first time a new supervisor is held accountable for the actions of subordinates. The need for immediate training and guidance upon promotion or transfer is critical to facilitate the transition and enhance individual and organizational effectiveness. The Supervisor Development Program is to be used by trainers of newly promoted or reassigned supervisors. The program will guide the trainer and student supervisor through an on-the-job training experience in the skills, knowledge and attitudes required of supervisors performing specific assignments. Formal training beyond attendance at the POST Supervisory Course is highly desirable to further develop and refine the abilities of supervisors. The intent of this program is to provide the necessary structure to reinforce the basic principles of supervision and abilities needed to perform various supervisory assignments. The Supervisor Development Program emphasizes task orientation, individual training needs assessment, availability of a experienced trainer, and documentation of training progress.
