Abstract
In this article, we discuss a Masters' exit interview in which we use quest ions adopted from narrative therapy to celebrate the transition of Masters' students into the world of marital and family therapy professionals. We ar e finding that this process helps us underline our students' agency and com petence. Also, since the process elevates students to the level of consulta nts during the interview, it invites them to see themselves as experts in t heir own right.
