Abstract
In this chapter, we draw on the idea of doctoral education as a reflexive space in order to explore the practice, positioning and recognition of research supervision development. Changes to the provision of research education may mean changes to the way academics are prepared for their roles and responsibilities as supervisors. It may mean further support is required to assist in the development of certain supervisory skills; it may also mean that increasing resources will need to be made available to support supervisors in their decision making.
