Clinical competence is essential to the quality of speech-language pathology and audiology services. New national competency profiles specify the essential entry-to-practice competencies required in the professions. Similarly, competency-based frameworks have become the trend in health sciences education.
As a result, the Canadian Academic Coordinators of Clinical Education developed the Canadian Assessment of Clinical Competence (ACC-SLP/AUD) to assess student performance in clinical placements for all Canadian universities.
After this interactive webinar, participants will be able to:
- describe the trend towards competency-based education;
- explain the concepts of competency-based assessment; and
- apply competency-based assessment principles using examples from the new national student performance assessment tool.
