Models
Kurpius and Fuqua (1993)
1. PROVISION MODEL

 This is used when a potential consultee encounters a


problem which because of lack of time, interest, and
competence he/she cannot define objectively, and/or for
which he cannot identify possible solutions, or implement
and evaluate a problem-solving strategy.
Consultation Models:

2. PRESCRIPTIVE MODEL
 In some cases, competent people who are motivated to solve a
problem directly may lack confidence in their own strategy or may
not have the skills needed to carry out a problem-solving plan.

 The Consultant is expected to validate the consultee’s diagnosis


and treatment plan or to explore other options for defining and
solving a specific problem.
Consultation Models:

3. COLLABORATION MODEL
 The Consultant’s goal is to facilitate the consultee’s self-direction
and innate capacity to solve problems.
 As a catalyst, the Consultant helps consultees to share
observations, concepts, and proven practices and examine
facilitating or debilitating forces in both the immediate and larger
environment.
 Together, the consultant and the consultee can work for the revision
of the intervention to include overcoming the constraints or
limitations.
Consultation Models:

4. MEDIATION MODEL
 It is the consultant who recognizes a persisting
problem, gathers, analyzes, and synthesizes existing
information; defines the problem; decides on the most
appropriate intervention; then calls together the
persons who have direct contact with the problem
and have the greatest potential to influence desired
change.
