With the evidence-based practice movement, research has become essential to increase the effectiveness of counselors-in-training as they become clinicians and/or school counselors. Although master's students are required to take research classes within the counseling training program, they seem to feel scared about learning research knowledge and skills. Specifically, students may feel lost about how to implement research findings into their clinical and school counseling practice. This presentation will discuss strategies that counselor educators and supervisors can use to help students integrate research into practice. The presenters will discuss their experiences in applying research concepts in counselor training courses and engaging students in blending research and practical application.
