A guide for new graduate members, their supervisors and managers
The New Zealand Speech-language Therapists’ Association promotes and maintains high standards of education, clinical practice and ethical conduct of its members.
Newly qualified speech-language therapists (from an NZSTA-accredited programme or those with qualifications approved by the NZSTA) must complete the new graduate framework requirements. They are expected to work within a framework of best practice, abiding by the Code of Ethics and the principles of the Tiriti o Waitangi, particularly the principles of partnership, participation, and protection for both Māori and non-Māori clients.
When you submit your completed New Graduate Framework documentation to the admin office, please include a letter of recommendation from your supervisor.
