My graduate program did not have a full course on voice (it was only half a semester with AAC being the other half). It was a good refresher that also shared new information. It will help me with a client that I have that was born with a cleft palate (has been corrected but will need future surgeries so trying to figure out what is best to work on in the meantime).

Informative write-up, however, I was hoping for more specific information related to treatment. The course does not go into detail regarding what the prompting/cueing and/or treatment should look like to maximize results and that is the information I was most looking forward to. I do feel like I have a basic knowledge to speak about the topic though.
by

Great information in the write-up, however I was hoping for further information related to treatment. The 19th question discussed that once VPI is surgically corrected speech therapy can be provided, however the course does not go into detail regarding what the treatments or cues/prompts/exercises might look like.

I am currently providing (parent demanded) speech therapy for a student that presents with VPI insufficiency secondary to Cleft palate. This course and other courses on this topic have increased my confidence to stand firmly when educating others on the benefits of therapy verse the need for referral to a Craniofacial Team or other professional has been indicated.

It was short. Also, this is a great introductory session into VPI or hypo- and hypernasality. I work in a high school and my students come in with question marks in the history of whether it was addressed, mentioned, highlighted, etc. I have students who had cleft palates, seemingly had surgeries, and yet they make no mention of it. So, therapy becomes about self-advocacy.
by

This was a really helpful course, especially for those who don't frequently see children with speech/resonance disorders, in identifying the common signs/symptoms and the importance of knowing when and to whom we should refer our patients.

I enjoyed the ability to print off the course and read from a paper copy at my own rate. It made it easy to flip back and re-read a section, highlight important information and really work to understand the information. I also liked the break down into numbered sections for ease of reviewing information, especially when I get interrupted a lot during my reading.

The information was excellent! I only occasionally get students with resonance issues in my school practice; thus, my need to obtain further education on the subject of Evaluation and Treatment of Resonance Disorders.
