Chapter 12 discusses professionalism in group specialty practice. Group leaders possess a strong sense of professional identity as experts in the direct delivery, training, consulting, and research of group interventions. Such group therapists have one trait in common: They value the interpersonal domain in which group members are viewed as contributors to the potent interpersonal fabric where they both give and receive help. Group therapists have the requisite licenses or certifications first, as professional psychologists, and following that, further credentialing such as the American Board of Professional Psychology’s Group Diplomate or the of American Group Psychotherapy Association’s Certified Group Psychotherapist.

The article is devoted to the textbook on rhetoric published at Altai State University. Two key points determined the main subject of consideration they are orientation toward the graduate students of philology and their preparation for professional activities in a multi-ethnic environment. The need for a book is justified by the features of the socio-communicative situation in the countries of Greater Altai. The authors' attention is focused on issues of general and professional rhetorical, theoretical and practical training of graduate students of philology, their mastery of communicative and rhetorical competencies as well as the development of research skills. It is shown that the content of the textbook, reading-book and case-studies contributes to theformation of the academic and educational competencies of graduate students in the field of rhetoric, the development of independent work skills and also improvement of verbal (rhetorical) practice; that the formation of knowledge in the field of Kazakh national rhetoric requires an understanding of the priority over the speecheloquence, the concept of speech relevance, or conscious “speaking”. Orientation of graduate philologists to the work in a multi-ethnic environment reveals the importance of interculturalal communication, understanding the specifics of interpersonal relations between the speaker and the listener. In the field of higher education didactics, the research prospects are due to the improvement of the rhetorical culture of the teacher’s personality and his role as a person providing successful group communication.

Purpose The use of real-time recording technology for clinical instruction allows student clinicians to more easily collect data, self-reflect, and move toward independence as supervisors continue to provide continuation of supportive methods. This article discusses how the use of high-definition real-time recording, Bluetooth technology, and embedded annotation may enhance the supervisory process. It also reports results of graduate students' perception of the benefits and satisfaction with the types of technology used. Method Survey data were collected from graduate students about their use and perceived benefits of advanced technology to support supervision during their 1st clinical experience. Results Survey results indicate that students found the use of their video recordings useful for self-evaluation, data collection, and therapy preparation. The students also perceived an increase in self-confidence through the use of the Bluetooth headsets as their supervisors could provide guidance and encouragement without interrupting the flow of their therapy sessions by entering the room to redirect them. Conclusions The use of video recording technology can provide opportunities for students to review: videos of prospective clients they will be treating, their treatment videos for self-assessment purposes, and for additional data collection. Bluetooth technology provides immediate communication between the clinical educator and the student. Students reported that the result of that communication can improve their self-confidence, perceived performance, and subsequent shift toward independence.
