- Description
- Since 2008, final year students in the speech-language pathology program at the University of Newcastle (UON) have had the opportunity to gain clinical experience in Viet Nam. This paper will share the development and structure of NuSpeech, an international clinical placement model that has evolved over the past four years. The model incorporates key principles of clinical education to ensure students progress towards entry-level competency, while actively engaging in curriculum and implementing practices that highlight sustainability, partnerships, and capacity building for speech-language pathology practice in majority world countries.
