    Area of Science:

    • Medical Education
    • Psychology
    • Communication Skills Training

    Background:

    • General practitioner teachers require effective methods for teaching counselling skills.
    • Existing training methods may not adequately address the practical application of counselling in a short timeframe.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a teaching methodology for counselling skills for general practitioner teachers.
    • To outline a structured approach to counselling skills training within a brief residential course format.

    Main Methods:

    • The course divided the counselling process into six stages and identified five key skills.
    • Participants engaged in role-playing in trios, experiencing three distinct counselling interview roles.
    • Training utilized real, unresolved personal problems of the participants for practical application.

    Main Results:

    • The structured, role-playing approach facilitated the learning and assessment of counselling skills.
    • Experiential learning with genuine problems enhanced skill acquisition and understanding.
    • The methods proved effective in a short, intensive course setting.

    Conclusions:

    • A brief, intensive course can effectively teach counselling skills to general practitioner teachers.
    • A structured approach, role-playing, and the use of real-life problems are key components for successful training.
    • The described methods offer a practical model for similar educational interventions.
