Group assignments are an integral component of counselor training programs. Requiring students to complete group projects assesses two discrete domains: learning of the assignment (content) and individual contributions of students toward the completion of the group assignment (process). Proactively discussing how group assignments will be evaluated and how individual contributions will be assessed is a critical skill counselor educators need to cultivate. Group assignments can provide dispositional data for counselor trainees, and it is vital that counselor educators understand and see how failure to act could impact student growth experiences. Lack of intentionality, clarity, and communication in framing the evaluative framework for group assignments can create challenges for how counselor educators assess key performance indicators and student dispositions and for how students perceive the equity of work expectations across the program.
