Students first read about professional practice and the skills required to work effectively with clients. Next, they reflect on and write about the ideas in the text by completing homework exercises that follow each new concept. The book also includes a case, presented one section at a time, with questions that engage students in learning how to think like professionals. Role-playing in practice interviews promotes skill development, and simple evaluation tools allow for ongoing evaluation of competencies."--Publisher's website ER -
