Upon passing the Praxis exam, what type of license can the intern apply for?

The correct answer is that upon passing the Praxis exam, the intern can apply for a full two-year license. This license allows an individual to practice as a speech-language pathologist independently, following the completion of their graduate education and the successful passing of the Praxis exam, which assesses their knowledge and skills in the field.

The full two-year license is a significant step that grants the intern the autonomy to work directly with clients, implement treatment plans, and perform assessments without the need for direct supervision, as long as they meet the regulatory requirements established by the state.

In the context of the other options, the provisional and temporary licenses are typically granted on a more limited basis and may come with stipulations such as requiring supervision or being valid for a shorter period. A permanent license is typically not an appropriate designation immediately after passing the Praxis exam, as the full two-year license is a standard transitional step toward that status.
