Assessment of Competence
Assessment approaches are most effective when they integrate both formative and summative evaluations.
Formative assessment is a developmentally informed process that provides useful feedback during one’s training and throughout one’s professional career.
Summative assessment is an end point evaluation typically completed at the end of a professional program or when applying for licensure status.

Making Referrals
You may need to refer a client if the resources are limited in the setting in which you work.
You may also need to refer a client if the boundaries of your professional role restrict you from delivering the services your client needs.
Referring a client because of a value system conflict is not ethically acceptable.
If the client needs a higher level of care than the counselor can provide, then the counselor may refer the client.
Consider a referral as a final intervention after you have exhausted other interventions including consulting.

Evaluating Knowledge, Skills, and Personal Functioning

Evaluation of Interpersonal Behavior and Personal Characteristics
Evaluating trainees on the basis of personal characteristics is often a challenging task.
Interpersonal behaviors of trainees have a direct bearing on their clinical effectiveness, so these factors must be taken into consideration in the evaluation process.

12
Evaluating Character and Psychological Fitness of Trainees
Character:
The honesty and integrity with which a person deals with others
Psychological fitness:

Gatekeeper Role of Faculty in Promoting Competence (1 of 2)
The academic faculty in a professional program generally has a gatekeeper’s role, protecting consumers by identifying and intervening with graduate students who exhibit problematic behaviors.
The gatekeeper role is addressed in the ethics codes of most professional organizations.
Clinical training faculty also have a responsibility to protect other graduate students in their program from those trainees who are dealing with problems of professional competency.

14
Gatekeeper Role of Faculty in Promoting Competence (2 of 2)
Peers can play a role in helping to identify students who may be in need of remediation or dismissal.
Well-designed gatekeeping procedures appear to improve the effectiveness with which deficient students are identified and prevented from progressing unremediated into the counseling profession.

Dismissing Students for Nonacademic Reasons
Some students may not possess the emotional maturity or interpersonal skills necessary for clinical work, but they may have other skills that may be useful in the profession.
