What are the guidelines around Supervision and membership level?

An ACA Registered Supervisor should not supervise a Supervisee who is registered at a higher level than themselves, for example, a level 2 ACA member who is a Registered Supervisor should not supervise a level 3 member of ACA. To supervise effectively, a Supervisor should be more experienced and qualified than the Supervisee. The only time a Supervisor may supervise a Counsellor who holds a higher registration level is if the Supervisor holds a specialist qualification and experience in a field the Supervisee works in and there are no other Registered Supervisors of similar ilk available at an equal or higher level.
