Webinar: Introduction to Speech and Language Therapy

Attend an Introduction to Speech and Language Therapy Webinar

Tuesday 12 August at 06:00 PM BST (view in your timezone), £45

Are you considering a career in speech and language therapy? Participate in this 90 minute webinar to learn about client needs, therapy techniques and skills. Find out if SLT suits you and complement any shadowing opportunities. This will help you to apply for SLT courses.

Through case studies you’ll learn:

  • what needs clients have and several therapy approaches that work
  • what core skills therapists need (and how to identify your existing skills that are relevant)
  • how to approach therapists to arrange observation sessions (and other ways to get practical experience)
  • how to find resources (books, blogs, videos) to learn more about speech and language therapy and prepare your application form.

You’ll also have a chance to ask questions and afterwards you’ll receive a video recording of the webinar.
