From my experience, an effective assessment course in counselling should integrate theory, tools, and ethics. I have seen strong modules cover purposes of assessment, test selection, interpretation, cultural sensitivity, and ethical decision-making. I would recommend emphasizing assessment as an ongoing, collaborative process rather than a one-time diagnosis. When students learn to interpret data holistically, assessment becomes a tool for support rather than labeling.
