Abstract
Voice assessment and intervention in Australia share many features with voice practice internationally. However, because of the specific educational, public policy and cultural environment of Australia, it is likely that Australian practice is characterised by several unique features. This chapter describes the context for voice practice in Australia and discusses current practice in relation to speech pathology education, continuing professional development, service delivery and cultural influences.
