Abstract

Research on the development of advanced expertise emphasizes descriptive studies of the differences between novices and experts. This relative isolation from other cognitive research on learning and instruction has made it difficult to implement expertise research in the design of professional education and training. This article presents a number of issues that should be addressed during attempts to utilize expertise studies in the design of training. Included in the discussion are techniques such as cognitive task analysis, knowledge types, memory aids, presentation sequences, and motivational strategies. The article concludes by presenting an extensive example of expert-based training of counseling psychology novices in the assessment of depression and suicidality.
