There is a guide for supervision of doctoral students in healthcare that defines the roles and requirements for a supervisor (11). Some of those include clarifying the students’ purpose, understanding the student and their context, guiding them methodologically, intellectually and administratively, facilitating their communication and later on, introducing them to the scholarly community. | There is a guide for supervision of doctoral students in healthcare that defines the roles and requirements for a supervisor (11).

What is this about?
Supervision involves organizing, monitoring and directing activities or, in other words, oversight and leadership (1-3). In academia, supervision refers to guidance of an undergraduate, graduate or postgraduate student in their research, while providing knowledge and support. [1]

Why is this important?
The quality and success of postgraduate research is supported by effective supervision. [1] A good supervisor plays a crucial role in the overall experience, satisfaction, retention, and completion of postgraduate students. [2] Prevalence of depression, feelings of inadequacy and impostor syndrome are high in postgraduate students and academics in general, [3] and supervisors are such an important piece of the PhD journey that they often play a crucial role in development of those for doctoral students.

What are the best practices?
A review from 2010 (10) defines three models of supervision:
- a traditional model, a dyadic relationship between a supervisor and a student;
- a group supervision, in which there is a relationship between a student and a supervisor, as well as a student and other students, and
- a mixed model, which incorporates the two models and adds new technologies, such as online courses and teleconferences.
