HEASP2023 Speech Pathology Clinical Practice 2
This is second of the six professional practice units in the Bachelor of Speech Pathology (Honours) course. This unit further develops assessment of communication and swallowing needs including interpreting, diagnosing and reporting on client assessment. It provides students with an increased focus on the provision of speech pathology intervention. Students will consolidate their prior knowledge of speech pathology assessment, analysis, and interpretation and develop their knowledge of planning, implementation and evaluation of evidence based interventions as outlined in the Professional Standards of Practice for Speech Pathologists. Students' professional competencies of clinical reasoning, communication, lifelong learning and professionalism will continue to be developed along with reflective practice. Students will also complete community engagement activities, working collaboratively with community groups and organisations to achieve mutually agreed goals that build capacity, especially with those who are marginalised and disadvantaged. Students will participate in supervised practice education based placement at novice level competency for approximately and not less than 12 days, with flexible support from the university.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,164
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
