CEU Courses for SLPs

This course will review the research on how default roles, burn-out, extra duties, and lack of training on Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) mandates adversely affect service delivery to children with disabilities. This course will discuss key strategies for how SLPs can advocate for students with special needs through professional role empowerment methods.

The current study investigates clinical supervision, with regard to millennial student clinician expectations, needs and anxiety related to the supervisory process. It was hypothesized that millennial student learners would have greater anxiety, greater supervision expectations and supervisory needs at the outset of their graduate training.

This text reports the results of a study examining changes in the clinical decision-making processes of speech-language pathology (SLP) students. Web-based case simulations were used to elicit and measure clinical decision-making in eight graduate students at three stages in their training.

This course will outline the cognitive symptoms of both acquired brain injury and psychological health disorders that mirror each other and/or can co-occur. In addition, there will be some brief discussion surrounding chronic traumatic encephalopathy and its symptoms, which parallel those of psychiatric disorders.

This course will outline the new state survey process which was implemented industry-wide in skilled nursing facilities in November of 2017. The importance of interdisciplinary-based team care and person-centered care planning will be discussed.

Self-determination skills are directly related to successful post-secondary living skills for students with disabilities. This course teaches clinicians how to positively impact student self-determination skills from early elementary through high school.

The course will review ASHA Council for Clinical Certification (CFCC) requirements for the supervision of clinical simulations in communication sciences and disorders (CSD) programs. Guidelines and methodologies for supervising three types of simulation modalities (standardized patients, computer-based simulations, and manikins/part-task trainers) will be discussed.
Please note: This course uses a different recorded format from most of our courses; arrows on the playbar must be used to progress through the course. When playback stops after the course introduction, use the right arrow key to progress to the second slide, where you can read the full playback instructions. Due to the nature of the development of this content, this course is best viewed on a tablet-sized screen or larger. Please plan your viewing experience accordingly.

Person-centered care is emphasized as a best practice in general health care as well as speech-language pathology. This course is an introduction for SLPs treating adults, to show how simple choices for each step of the clinical process can lead to a person-centered approach and highly meaningful, functional therapy.

This Research Watch Report focuses on some of the most current research in the areas of attention and memory impairments in adults with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Three peer-reviewed articles are summarized and potential clinical applications of the evidence are discussed.

This course is geared toward SLPs who provide services to children from low-income backgrounds and their families. The course shares practical strategies for helping these children increase their language skills, both oral and literate, as well as increase their executive functioning skills, for a more successful future.
