The Rhythm of an Ascent Day

3
1:1 Sessions per Ascent Day
30
Minutes per Session
5–10
Min Peer Feedback per Session
6
Bi-Monthly 1:1 Mentor Meetings (40 min each)

A Sample Ascent Day Flow

  • Session 1 Clinical supervision — first student Pre-form reviewed 24 hrs prior · 30 minutes, with the final 5–10 minutes held for peer feedback
  • + 7 min Transition & mentor notes
  • Session 2 Clinical supervision — second student 30 minutes, closing with peer feedback
  • + 7 min Transition & mentor notes
  • Session 3 Clinical supervision — third student 30 minutes, closing with peer feedback

On peer feedback: the final 5–10 minutes of each 30-minute supervision slot are held for peer feedback from observing students. This is where collective wisdom emerges — bring your noticings, questions, and reflections with care.

A note on stewardship: missed appointments may be filled by another student, or that time reallocated to extend a remaining session. Every minute of mentorship is honored.

04

Sign-Ups, Forms & Observation

Three rhythms hold the work: schedule your presence, prepare before each session, and document what you observe. Submit your forms 48 hours before each session so your mentor can review and arrive prepared.
