Commenter: A current VA SLP Graduate Student

In Support
 

To whom it may concern, 

As a current speech language pathologist graduate student, my course of study not only include a variety of classes that involve all types of age groups and disorders to be educated about for the profession; but also am required to complete 400 hours of clinical practicum. This means that I am the clinician, under a supervisor, that treats these patients for a number of disorders. I have seen a wide range of children, adults, groups, and much more that I am prepared for in my field of work. Due to this, I am in support for receiving my Certification of Clinical Competence (CCC) after graduation and eliminating the extra year of work under supervision.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
