We explored the relationship between master's‐level counseling students' ( N = 285) disability competence, disability‐related life experience, and multicultural course completion. Results indicated disability‐related life experience and multicultural course completion may differentially affect self‐perceived disability competence. Implications and recommendations for counselor training are discussed.
