"They didn't teach that in grad school..."

Instructors, students, and clinical supervisors share the goal of preparing SLP students for today’s fast-paced medical environment… but also face challenges in making this a reality. 

It’s difficult to cover all the important SLP topics in school, leading to a gap between classroom knowledge and practical experience.

Closing this gap is crucial, but trying to do so can be overwhelming for professors, students, and clinical supervisors. How many times have you heard your students lamenting about the difference between clinical rotations and what they learned in a text book?

Introducing the perfect bridge for the classroom - clinic  gap:

We're committed to making education and resources affordable to all.
Pricing depends on the number of courses you need and how many students are enrolled, but your group will pay less than professional prices currently listed on our website.

Our flexible enrollment options give you the freedom to make the best choice for your students.

Group enrollment: Your department can enroll students based on a class (like Dysphagia), or the entire department for a deeper discount. The more students enrolled, the higher the discount for the department, which bears the cost of enrollments.

Individual enrollment: Students in your program enroll individually. In this case, your program passes along the cost of education to the students. 

Modern MedSLP Specialty Tracks are focused, specialized educational opportunities that offer a deep-dive on a topic area (like acute care). Targeting comprehensive understanding, these self-paced tracks incorporate multiple modules and learning assessments, adding up to more than 8 hours of education for each track. Students are rewarded a certificate upon completion in acknowledgment of their commitment to in-depth learning.
