Abstract: | This article presents the outcomes of a qualitative investigation addressing the global exchange of counselor education. Findings
delineate key traits and behaviors applied by counselor educators and counseling psychologists in cross-cultural exchanges.
Personal traits noted by educators as essential for international exchanges included flexibility, respect, openness to learning,
and passion for the experiences provided by international travel. Factors that increased cultural competency were cited as
communication skills, increased comprehension of the context, and understanding of the counseling profession within the culture. |
