Supervised Retreat Direction
(Supervision)

Offered at Campion Centre of Ignatian Spirituality, 99 Studley Park Road, Kew

This course aims to help students become competent directors of the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius of Loyola. At the completion of Spiritual Exercises—Theory (PDS405.15) and Spiritual Exercises—Practice (DS406.15) there will be a discernment involving the student and the Coordinator of the program as to whether the student should go on to DS410.15, which is directing the full Spiritual Exercises under supervision. The course will involve guiding two retreatants through either: (i) the Retreat in Daily Life over 35 weeks, or (ii) the full one-month (30-day) experience. If the student is directing the full one-month experience, supervision would occur on a daily basis. If the participant is directing the Retreat in Daily Life over 30 weeks, supervision occurs on a weekly basis.
