Red Flags vs Red Herrings: Case Approach to Improve Your Own Clinical Confidence in Interpreting Neurological Signs
Presented by Kendrea L. (Focht) Garand, PhD, CScD, CCC-SLP, BCS-S, CBIS, CCRE
Live WebinarThu, Aug 27, 2026 at 12:00 pm EDT
Course: #11467Level: Advanced1 Hour
This course features an interactive, case-based exploration of neurological findings that frequently challenge clinical decision-making, utilizing real patient scenarios. This session equips allied health professionals with the assessment skills and clinical confidence necessary to evaluate, document, and manage common neurological presentations accurately.

What the Score Doesn't Tell You: Clinical Reasoning in Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)
Presented by Farzana Vela, MS, CCC-SLP, BSRC, RRT-NPS
Text
Course: #11605Level: Intermediate1 Hour
This course uses three clinical case studies to build the diagnostic reasoning SLPs need when a cognitive screen looks fine, but the clinical picture suggests otherwise, drawing on SCD-Plus criteria, education-adjusted assessment, and evidence-based intervention for mild cognitive impairment. The course differentiates subjective cognitive decline from MCI, interprets screening results in the context of educational background, and addresses modifiable dementia risk factors within the SLP scope of practice.

Project-Based Intervention for Aphasia: A Practical Approach to Life Participation Goals
Presented by Katie Strong, PhD, CCC-SLP, Thomas Sather, PhD, CCC-SLP
VideoAudio
Course: #11433Level: Introductory1 Hour
Project-based intervention provides rich opportunities for individuals with aphasia to pursue meaningful goals and identity re-formulation in authentic contexts. This course explores tools for partnering with people living with aphasia to target meaningful project-based and participation-focused interventions applicable for clinic-based outpatient and community aphasia services. In-depth case examples will be provided, illustrating applications of project-based interventions across multiple settings using evidence-based components.

Tapping into the Power of Neuroplasticity for Individuals with Neurogenic Cognitive-Communication Disorders
Presented by Melissa Johnson, PhD, CCC-SLP, Jessie Preston, MA, CCC-SLP
VideoAudio
Course: #11438Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Neuroplasticity principles are well-established and can inform rehabilitation practices. Traditionally, rehabilitation services have focused on the acute and subacute phases of recovery; however, there is clear evidence that individuals can continue to recover function long into the chronic phase. This course will present ideas for tapping into the power of neuroplasticity to support individuals with chronic neurogenic cognitive-communication disorders across the continuum of care, including recommendations for advocacy to promote service delivery and access.

Cough Strengthening Treatment Impact on Vocal Health in Parkinson’s Disease
Presented by Bridget Russell, PhD, CCC-SLP
Video
Course: #11364Level: Intermediate1 Hour
This course reviews the effects of Sensorimotor Training for Airway Protection (smTAP), a cough-strengthening treatment method, on the vocal health of individuals with Parkinson’s Disease. While this treatment enhances cough efficacy, its impact on vocal health remains underexplored. Discussion involves pre- and post-treatment vocal health evaluations, comparing how the use of smTAP affects vocal health in patients with Parkinson's Disease. Findings offer clinically relevant insights into treatment selection for Parkinson’s Disease patients.

Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI): Assessment and Treatment
Presented by Kim McCullough, PhD, CCC-SLP
VideoAudioText
Course: #11362Level: Introductory1 Hour
With the growing prevalence of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), speech-language pathologists play an important role in early identification and intervention. This course explores the characteristics of MCI and examines current best-practice guidelines for assessment and treatment.

Neuroanatomy Review for SLPs
Presented by Melissa Johnson, PhD, CCC-SLP
Video
Course: #11328Level: Intermediate1 Hour
This course will provide a review of neuroanatomy concepts that are relevant to speech-language pathologists, especially those practicing in medical settings and/or with medically complex clients. Topics covered will include: review of brain anatomy (e.g., cranial nerves, structures and functions associated with neurological disorders/diseases, cerebrovascular system) and discussion of the dual stream models for language and prosody and their implications for clinical practice.

Beyond the Tip of the Iceberg: Communication Across the Dementia Journey
Presented by Laurie Walther, MS, CCC-SLP
Video
Course: #11308Level: Intermediate1 Hour
An iceberg serves as a powerful metaphor for the complexities of communication and how our individual backgrounds, experiences, and perceptions shape how we interpret interactions. When caring for a person living with dementia, we may only observe what appears at the “tip of the iceberg.” To foster meaningful communication, we must look beneath the surface to uncover the deeper meaning behind their words and behaviors.

Right Hemisphere Brain Damage: Evidence-Based Assessment and Treatment Across the Continuum of Care
Presented by Melissa Johnson, PhD, CCC-SLP
Video
Course: #11295Level: Advanced2 Hours
This course will examine the cognitive-communication impairments that may result from right hemisphere brain damage (RHD), including an in-depth exploration of apragmatism (i.e., deficits in pragmatics). It will review the current evidence on the language characteristics of individuals with RHD, as well as approaches to assessment and treatment. The discussion will also highlight important implications for clinical practice.
