Since its’ release in 2007, over 172 universities and speech and hearing clinics have adopted the CAAI approach and assessment battery in their clinical practice, thereby offering a structured, evidence-based approach to all clinical decision-making, from diagnosis to discharge for their accent clients.
Similarly, hundreds of private practitioners have found the adoption of CAAI has helped their accent-modification practice become easier and structured, thereby yielding better results for their clients.
“Doing the right thing now just got easier !!”
THE CAAI APPROACH (ASSESSMENT MODEL AND DIAGNOSTIC BATTERY) offers an evidence-based practice pathway as it represents the integration of ”Best Evidence” with “Client Values” and “Clinical Expertise”.
