Popis:	Research has indicated that beginning Rehabilitation Counselors frequently lack understanding about the process of identifying and developing collaborative relationships with community agencies. Even if they recognize the need, it is often outside of their comfort zone. One reason that counseling students and professionals may be hesitant to engage in this activity is related to a lack of exposure to the process. Incorporation of experiential learning assignments throughout the rehabilitation counseling program is a potent approach to address this issue. The types of experiential learning tasks and projects, incorporated into a large, online Master's Degree program in Rehabilitation Counseling, are discussed. This learning model has applications to many different types of human services education programs that are delivered primarily online.
