What is it about?
Graduate students in a speech-language therapy program shared their views of the differences between telepractice and in-person therapy. They reported more similarities than differences related to preparation, establishing rapport, family involvement, collecting data, and client progress. In the end, participants’ self-efficacy and implementation readiness increased for both service delivery models

Why is it important?
The findings from this study provide a foundation for graduate training by relating telepractice to in-person service delivery models.
Perspectives
While writing this article, I reflected on my observations of students' learning a 'novel to them' service delivery approach, telepractice. They started with anxiety but soon gained self-efficacy in their clinical reasoning skills. I hope this article provides resources for other faculty to embed in clinical curriculum for graduate students in CSD.
