Why CAAI?
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”.

Video FAQs
Video clips shown below will answer some of the frequently asked questions by students and supervisors in accent clinics. We interviewed our graduate clinicians in their experience of independently using the CAAI, without any prior guidance or training..and here are their candid responses that will hopefully address your own frequently experienced challenges in working with accent clients and/or supervising graduate students. We hope this helps you see the CAAI in action as well as understand the larger purpose of using a standardized tool to assess dialects and accents.
