Is the graduate program responsible for making sure students take the Praxis examination prior to graduation?
No, it is the student’s responsibility to be sure that they have completed the examination at the appropriate time. The Praxis examination is designed to be taken once all academic course work and clinical practicum required for certification have been completed, but in many situations students take the exam as they are beginning their final year in the graduate program. When the exam is taken, the applicant must list ASHA as a score recipient so that the results will be sent to the National Office. Additionally, it is helpful if the applicant lists their graduate program as a score recipient so that the program can report aggregate performance data periodically to the Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA) for the program’s accreditation purposes.
