This article explores a model partnership with a counseling education program and the Peace Corps. Counselor education students in a group counseling course developed and implemented a singular structured group session with clients not typically used (e.g., non-counseling students) to maximize student learning and implement group counseling skills.

In addition, the authors provide strategies for developing similar partnerships between counselor education programs and other agencies.
