1. Assessment
2. Outcomes identification

Correct Answer: 4

Consultation is part of Standard 5: Implementation. Assessment deals with data collection. Outcomes identification sets identified goals for a plan specific to the client or situation. Planning prescribes strategies and alternatives to attain expected outcomes.
