We report a 15‐item role‐play competence measure. Ratings by three judges of 34 role plays from psychodynamic interpersonal therapy training showed good inter‐rater (.73–.79) and internal reliability (.84–.96). Validity was supported as scores were statistically significantly associated with psychotherapy experience. Most participants achieved satisfactory ratings supporting the training.
