All student speech and language therapists are required to complete 450 hours of clinical practice in order to be eligible to graduate and register with CORU to practise as a Speech and Language Therapist. This recommendation is echoed by IASLT’s Education Board which also accredits university programmes. IASLT and its members have a strong and consistent record of supporting student placements. Practice educators should have a minimum of 2 years post qualification experience.
This toolkit aims to support students' learning healthcare clinical skills through telehealth and simulation
