The authors investigated the purposes, benefits, and outcomes of sabbaticals for counselor educators. Forty‐five counselor educators who had taken sabbaticals within the previous 5 years completed an on‐line survey about aspects of their sabbatical leave. Sabbaticals were overwhelmingly reported to be positive and productive experiences that yielded personal and professional benefits.
