Diagnosis & Treatment of Complex Cases in Speech-Language Pathology
Our month-long series on complex cases in speech-language pathology in partnership with Rush University Medical Center got off to a great start last week with Doreen Izaguirre, Instructor and Manager of SLP Clinical Education at Rush University. She provided practical and relevant information on how to effectively supervise graduate students in her course, Identifying the Complexities of Supervising SLP Graduate Students. If you were unable to attend the webinar, it is now available as a recorded course in our library.
The Rush University Medical Center Series continues this week and throughout the month of July focusing on complex cases in speech-language pathology. Join us to hear guest editor Richard Peach, PhD, CCC-SLP, BC-ANCDS and the teaching faculty of the graduate program in Speech-Language Pathology at Richard Peach Rush University Medical Center offer insights on complex clinical cases taken from their own caseloads.

Also, later this month, we are excited to offer a new three-hour course, “Play-Based Treatment: Basic Strategies for Exceptional Instruction” by Meredith Poore Harold, PhD, CCC-SLP. Learn how to use structured and purposeful play strategies to enhance your therapy sessions for achievement and generalization.
