Students attend clinic, either on-campus or off-campus are responsible for the management of paediatric and adult clients, under the supervision of a speech pathology clinical educator. Students will participate in a range of aspects of the workplace including clinic, group supervision and administration. Students also complete the Healthcare Collaboration Challenge to develop interprofessional skills, and a simulated clinical experience to further develop clinical competency. At the completion of this unit of study, students are required to demonstrate early intermediate skills on COMPASS (Assessment in Speech Pathology) across any of the range of practice areas (CBOS, 2011) of speech, language, voice, fluency and multi-modal communication disorders, unless the complexity of the disorder or specialist clinical setting indicates otherwise.
