A six-stage skill-based model for training group counselors that incorporates experiential, didactic, observational, and role-play components is described. Skill-based training methodologies can be applied to each of the core skill competencies forgroup counselors as outlined by thehsociation for Specialists in Group Work. Because this training model focuses on skill acquisition rather than interpersonal development, it can be used to reduce dual-relationship issues in the training of group counselors. Also, skill-based training models contain mechanisms for enhancing the self-confidence of group counselor trainees that m y not be present in training models that are strictly didactic in nature.

“…During the past 15 years there have been some substantive efforts made to adapt microcounseling techniques to teach group leadership skills. Authier (1981), Harvill, Masson, and Jacobs (1983), Pearson (1985), and Toth and Stockton (1996) discussed this adaptation. In each case, these researchers had students participate in didactic, observational, and experiential learning.…”

Our protocol followed the model developed by Ivey (1971Ivey ( , 1994 and adapted it for use in group counselor training (Authier, 1981;Harvill et al, 1983;Pearson, 1985;Toth & Stockton, 1996).

Group counseling theory and empirical research indicate that interpersonal feedback is an impor tant element that can lead to insight and change in group members. Yet, managing interpersonal feedback is a difficult skill for novice group leaders to learn. This article examines (a) the role of feedback in counseling groups; (b) the implementation of a skill-based training program to teach novice group counselors how to give, receive, and facilitate inter personal feedback; and (c) students' evaluation of such a program in which they participated. Recommendations are made to practitioners for incorporating feedback into counseling, and for counselor educators regarding the teaching of the intervention.
