In planning for alternative supervision cover, we explore how to ensure you stay ethical and supported during supervisor absences. Then in 'Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Daragh Mac Loughlin from WebHealer about how to maximise your website presence and build a joined-up online identity across web and social platforms. And finally, in 'Student Services', Rory and Ken address a hot topic - should counselling students pay for a placement? With insight from Paul Cullen, they look at fairness, value for money, and what to consider if faced with this scenario. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/counselling-tutor-podcast-217505/episodes/357-planning-for-alternative-supervision-cover/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/counselling-tutor-podcast-217505/357-planning-for-alternative-supervision-cover.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
