In accordance with the ASHA Standards, the student progress toward entry-level skills in nine academic, clinical, and professional areas must be tracked and monitored. This Knowledge and Skills Assessment (KASA) required by ASHA is accomplished in our department through Exxat, a web-based interactive application that manages key aspects of the student’s academic and clinical education. It will be the student’s responsibility to monitor and participate in the process.  Progress will be updated at the end of each semester, so make sure to check your Exxat account periodically. We will also review your KASA at each of our advising meetings to ensure that the student stays on track.
