dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this project was to develop a methodology for private practice career counselors to assess on an ongoing basis the effectiveness of the career development services they provide to their clients. The assessment process developed makes use of action research and qualitative analysis to evaluate data collected from the career counselor's clients to provide feedback that the career counselor can use to increase the effectiveness of client services by giving direction to professional and business development. The project focuses on the appraisal of the effectiveness of a single private practice career counselor. Data collection tools and methods were devised and integrated into the counselor's practice between January 1, 2003 to June 15, 2003. The test period provided the researcher and the career counselor with data to assess the effectiveness of both the methodology developed and the career development services provided to clients during this period. The project evaluation is also two-fold and includes: a) an analysis of the effectiveness of the career counselor's services based on the survey data received from clients and b) a review of the effectiveness of the methodology to elicit client feedback useful in determining the career counselor's effectiveness.
