We've now received 75 applications for our 9th Global Practice Interview Programme for people who stutter from 21 countries, including some countries we haven't had representation from before! These include applications from Africa, Scandinavia, the Baltic States & Southern Europe. There's still time to apply! Applications will close at midnight on Monday 8 September. What do you need to know? 🟢 You can take part as an interviewee who stutters, or an interviewer. As an interviewer, you don't have to be a person who stutters, you can be an ally. 🟢 You will need to commit 5-6 hours of online availability during 6-13 October to attend a mandatory educational briefing, your 1-1 practice interview with feedback, an optional extra learning session, and an optional group feedback session at the end. 🟢 The event is free for people who stutter. While there’s scale for allies who don't stutter, e.g. Speech and Language Therapists go free, we ask for a modest contribution from large employers towards our costs.
