Getting up to Speed with Supervision

Ever wonder how your role shifts as an SLP supervisor depending on who you’re supervising? This course will cover current evidence-based practice for supervision in speech-language pathology as well as specific recommendations for supervision of Speech-Language Pathology Assistants (SLPAs), SLPA students, SLP master’s students, and newly graduated SLPs completing their clinical fellowship experience. Effective tools and strategies for clinical supervision and strategies for teaching professionalism to mentees will be shared.

Considerations and Strategies for Successfully Mentoring a Clinical Fellow

For many SLPs, working with a Clinical Fellow is new territory and they often lack a clear understanding of the role they play as the CF’s supervisor. In addition, as a recent college graduate, Clinical Fellows lack the experience to know what to expect of their supervisor. This dynamic can create challenges related to unknown and unmet expectations. This session addresses ASHA expectations for supervision of a clinical fellow including required documentation and identifies supervision challenges with some practical solutions.

Streamlining Teletherapy with SLP Toolkit

As the world navigates through the chaos created by COVID-19, speech-language pathologists have risen to the challenge of providing top-notch speech and language services via various teletherapy platforms. With a steep learning curve, large caseloads, and logistical nightmares, SLPs deserve a simple way to schedule, plan, and collect data. Participants will learn how to use SLP Toolkit as a seamless and efficient addition to their teletherapy services.

Getting Started with SLP Toolkit

As caseloads rise, systems must be established by SLPs to streamline workload while maintaining best practice. This course will focus on the different types of measurement tools, how to create them and use them consistently, and how this connects into what is best for the student (e.g. data driven decision making).
