Students in a master’s-level graduate course in school counseling program evaluation conducted a qualitative research study to investigate school counselors’ experiences with evidence-based program delivery and evaluation. We discuss the study’s findings that illuminated themes of challenges faced by school counselors with implications for evidence-based practice. The abbreviated methodology used in this study showed promise for school counselors in the field to conduct qualitative action research that may demonstrate adequate trustworthiness and credibility.

Research Competencies

This study investigated how state licensure examinations address school counseling program evaluation and research. In the 31 states that require them, examinations gave little attention to measuring competencies associated with designing and conducting a program evaluation. We found variability in how these examinations addressed research competencies. These results indicate a need for greater clarity and understanding on the part of state examiners regarding what school counselors need to know and be able to do in terms of program evaluation and research.

This article evaluates the initial psychometric qualities of the School Counseling Program Evaluation Survey (SCoPES). SCoPES is a 64-item instrument designed to correspond to The National Standards for School Counseling Programs (Campbell & Dahir, 1997). Coefficient alphas on the overall score and the three subscales (i.e., Academic, Career, and Personal/Social Development) were all above .90. All items had significant factor loadings with the specified subscales. The loadings for Academic Development were .38 to .79; for Career Development, .42 to .78; and for Personal/Social Development, .36 to.70. The indexes of goodness-of-fit supported a three-factor instrument. Additionally, students with more contacts with their school counselor reported more career competencies than did students who had never met with a counselor.

The Right

Program evaluation in comprehensive guidance and counseling is very important to determine the level of goal achievement. In order for the evaluation results to provide the right information, a valid and reliable instrument is needed. At the higher education level, the comprehensive guidance and counseling program, including the program evaluation component, does not have many references that users can refer to. The available references focus more on primary and secondary education levels. This research is intended to produce the intended evaluation instrument. Descriptive methods and literature review were used in this study. The data were revealed using a Delphi technique questionnaire involving three experts, then analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. In this study, the constructs of evaluation instruments for comprehensive guidance and counseling programs were synthesized and modified from various expert opinions and professional organizations with two patterns of answers: yes and no, translated into 294 statements. The resulting evaluation instrument needs to be empirically tested for its feasibility by involving adequate participants.
