The purpose of counselors evaluating their models of learning and what they are taught about how to implement those practices as a mode of accountability. By doing so, through formative evaluation, individual counselors are taking ownership of the field as a whole, and their individual practice models and ethical behaviors, thereby enhancing counseling practices, holding stakeholders accountable, and enhancing the profession. Summative evaluation will do the same by providing for outcome research and accountability of counseling practices. Both hold value and are useful to us counselors in our work. Just as formative and summative evaluation is valid, so are external and internal evaluators. Both models of evaluation can be used for a number of purposes including communication, management, documentation, operation, development, approach, and questions. Designs most used in the counseling field are detailed, such as evaluations focused on desired outputs. To prevent assumption from constructing the designs of programming, ideally both types of evaluations will be used to allow some form of comparison of output data. The strengths of these designs are shown post application when either achievement or non-achievement of their desired outputs result. Therefore, a span from broad to detailed knowledge of the effects of predicted extraneous covariates will be necessary and allow for comparison of before and after implementation of the program. If an internal factor is sought as an explanation of predicted results, such as associated reductions in a common measurable systemic change or improvement, then external evaluation is most applicable. Internal evaluators would be more appropriate to address evaluation of outcomes. Therefore, an internal evaluator would not make a good predictor, but would rather do well as focusing on components of a hypothesis. Evaluations that focus on components of the program result are better implemented externally. External evaluators can better predict whether internal applications will produce results. For example, the internal structuring of a program is envisioned internally by its creators, i.e., from vision statement, mission statement, target audience, to treatments. Without external evaluation of these implementations, such as knowing that the target audience would not have access to typical levels of program resources, will help prevent programs from developing and implementing the activities associated with incorrect business plan data. Consider a program for non-discriminatory efforts in the application of mental health assessments. Evaluation of cultural responsiveness, competency, and equity in program development would be essential. So would consideration of comprehensive thoughts, customs, values, and beliefs of racial, ethnic, abilities, and ‎religious groups in social constructs. Cognizance of this during the assessment process would be the ultimate goal. Leading to the development of employment/career choices, culture influences and impacts all stakeholders’ decisions in the counseling field. Therefore, it is important to include cultural considerations during the assessment process. There is need to be culturally all-encompassing and responsive. All stakeholders’ goals are to minimize cultural bias and to be aware of acculturation. Additional audiences which exist for the results of these evaluations are anyone given assessment and evaluation that includes the identification of a person’s beliefs, skills, abilities, achievement, ‎interests, personality type, values, language, gender, race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. Given the global implications of this demographic data Formative, Summative, Internal and External evaluation of assessment programs will always be appropriate. Random ‎sampling and purposive sampling would be feasible and useful in most evaluations. Consistent, regular evaluation of such information gathering is not only ethical but a legal obligation of mental health professionals through HIPAA practices. Though some governmental monitoring and evaluation of such information is already in place, it can cost some programs significantly to implement evaluation after the fact, if an error has resulted in discriminatory practices. To maintain or decrease the costs associated with an evaluation counselor self-awareness, counseling relationships, worldviews, counseling and advocacy interventions should all be regularly monitored and reported for cultural competency and responsiveness.
