1 Kenneth E. Bruscia Barbara Hesser Edith H. Boxill Essential Competencies for the Practice of Music Therapy Establishing competency requirements for music professionals goes back as far as the Middle Ages. In fact, wandering minstrels and jongleurs, the medieval forefathers of performing musicians, were often described and compared in terms of specific areas of competency (Burkhalter, 1968). Today, as in the Middle Ages, competency requirements of a profession are used in two ways: as criteria for entering or working in a profession, and as guidelines for educating and training professionals. For example, competencies are presently used as criteria for state certification of music educators (Craig, 1978), as learning objectives for the preparation of music educators (Teacher Education Commission, 1972), and as the basis for evaluating different degree curricula in music (NASM, 1980), Although competencies for the practice of music therapy have been cited in textbooks (Michel, 1977; Nordoff and Robbins, 1977). in educational research studies (Alley, 1978; Greenfield, 1978), and in various unpublished documents such as staff and intern evaluation forms, they were not used as criteria for certification or curriculum evaluation until 1975, when the American Association for Music Therapy (AAMT) officially adopted an inventory developed by the present authors. Appearing in the organization s manual on education and training (AAMT, 1975) under the chapter heading AAMT Music Therapy Competencies Entry Level, this inventory was originally copyrighted by the authors under the title Basic Music Therapy Competenties. Since its publication, this inventory has enjoyed widespread use; however, it has also received a fair share of criticism from professionals and students alike. In light of the need for revisions and clarifications, the original inventory has been reworked into its present form. Several sources were used in developing the inventories. First, existing music therapy curricula were analyzed to identify common learning objectives. Several potential competency requirements were discovered, especially in the area of music. Second, job descriptions were surveyed in order to identify primary responsibilities of a 43
2 music therapist. In most instances, these responsibilities coincided with basic steps in the therapeutic process: establishing a therapeutic relationship, assessing the client s assets and problems, planning treatment goals and methods, conducting therapy sessions, evaluating client progress and therapeutic procedures, achieving closure, writing reports, and attending case conferences. Task analysis of these steps revealed several competency requirements, particularly in the areas of clinical foundations and music therapy. The job description survey also identified several other significant variables in music therapy practice: the variety of client populations served by music therapists; differences in treatment philosophies and administrative structures; the nature of music therapy services provided (e.g., individual versus group, methodological models of therapy); and the increasing emphasis on interdisciplinary team work. After a large number of competencies were formulated and grouped into areas, each area was evaluated for its completeness and compared with other areas for redundancies. The final list of competencies was selected according to four criteria. Specifically, each competency should be: (1) Essential rather than peripheral. The competencies should be directly applicable to music therapy practice. For example, the ability to write and distinguish different species of counterpoint, while essential in some music professions, is rarely required in music therapy practice, and this would not qualify. (2) Entry-level rather than advanced. The competencies should reflect the knowledge and skills needed to enter the profession (i.e., begin practicing music therapy). Advanced competencies such as clinical specializations, research, or supervision were therefore excluded. (3) Universal rather than populationspecific. The competencies should be common to all types of music therapy, rather than unique to only a particular client population or clinical setting. (4) Professional rather than personal. The competencies should reflect professional knowledge and skills rather than desirable personal traits or habits. Thus, any competency requiring experiences beyond those of the classroom or internship were excluded Musical Foundations 1.
