This study applied two research methods, including questionnaire and individual semi-formal interview. The pre- and post-training questionnaires were completed by junior high school counselors who have participated the training workshop. The data were analyzed by Wilcoxon Sign-Rank Test and descriptive statistics. Six female junior high school counselors who have attended both training workshop and on-site group supervision were interviewed individually. The interview transcriptions were analyzed by qualitative methodology. The results of the study included six dimensions: (a) the challenges and difficulties individual encountered as a supervisor; (b) the interviewees’ harvest of training program; (c) the effective ways of conducting the training program ; (d) the deficits of the training program; (e) the suggestions of the training program; and (f) the interviewees’ opinions of the current structure of internship supervision. Based on the results of this study, the discussion focused on exploring the effect of the training program, and the facilitating and non-facilitating factors for the interviewees to learn to become a junior high school counselor as supervisor of junior high school counselors. According to the result and the discussion, this study proposed suggestions to school counseling, the training program for the junior high school counselors as supervisors, and for future studies.
