Client/Group progress summary	Clients liked the sessions and signed up for the next season's class.
Reflection and self-evaluation	I would liked the offerings I gave for this season. I would like to polish it more to suit the audience.
Final Client/Group Report	After seeing your client/group (for at least 4 sessions including interactive intake) Please remember practicum is a learning experience. You’ll learn more from sharing what’s accurate than from what might “look good”. Things you did well, not so well, problems and questions are all valid and useful tools to teach you. We can’t serve you to become the best clinician you can be if you don’t share your challenges and mistakes. Success is anything from which you learn. You can continue to add Session entries after submitting this Final Client/Group Report.
