Determining the gap for UW-Stout student supervisor training

Since it is not possible to determine in advance who a new supervisor would be, or when they would become a supervisor, and what their delivery preferences are.

Furthermore, the results showed that supervisors preferred a blended (both online and in person training) method of learning
