Clinical Supervisors

“CALIPSO was a very efficient, convenient, and user-friendly web-based evaluation program. By using an internet program, it creates a "green" evaluation method, as well as a "stress-free" method for students and clinicians alike as there is no concern for misplaced paperwork!”

Tessa Morrell, MS, CCC-SLP

“The CALIPSO program really streamlined the student evaluation process. The organization and ease of CALIPSO gave me time to focus on providing quality feedback to the student, which is the real focus, without the time intensive challenges of completing cumbersome forms and calculating scores. I love how it self-calculates. When I was finished with an evaluation, I simply clicked “save” and was done. No faxing, mailing, or sending attachments via e-mail. How easy is that!”

“CALIPSO has made the supervising process so much easier. It organizes and tracks performance in the different ASHA required areas, calculates student performance, and allows you to easily identify areas of weakness and strength.”

“Calipso saves trees! Reports, evaluations and other documentation are maintained in a password-protected environment where the student and supervisor can view information when needed, thus eliminating the need to make copies that are usually stored in paper files that are less confidential and secure. Because all the information was at my fingertips, I wasn’t constantly calling or e-mailing the clinical coordinator.”

“I was very impressed with the CALIPSO system in managing the evaluations and paperwork for my student. It was fast, easy to use, and informative. I appreciated being able to see what classes and practicums she had already completed in order to see how much assistance was needed for patient care.”
