Abstract

The objective of this research is to develop multicultural competence and social justice of counseling teachers in SMA/MA. The competency improvement program departs from conditions that are strongly influenced with cultural factors and a lack of social justice in counseling as well as the need for contextualization of client problems and interventions. To understand the client’s life experience is needed to learn the cultural and social context that surrounds it. Multicultural and social justice approaches to counseling give some advantages, like clarifying the complementary nature and relevance of counseling.

This activity is carried out in three stages, namely identification of participants, implementation of training and training evaluation. The participant identification stage is done by selecting relevant counseling teachers / counselors for group counseling training, as well as giving an initial survey for them. Furthermore, the implementation stage begins with reflection, expository and questions and answers on activity material, as well apply comprehensive training methods on training materials. Lastly, the evaluation stage is conducted to assess the results of the counseling teachers or counselors after carrying out the activity. All of the stages are carried out online.

Multicultural and social justice-based group counseling training provides added value to counseling services in schools by using the multicultural and social justice aspects of students as a strength and opportunity for guidance and counseling.
