Overview

Supervising Speech-Language Pathology Assistants (SLPAs) is a significant professional responsibility, encompassing legal, ethical, and practical dimensions. While in-person supervision offers unique advantages, remote supervision has become increasingly prevalent, especially in the growing field of telepractice. This shift brings unique challenges but also opens up new opportunities for flexible, effective supervision models.

In this insightful pre-recorded webinar, experienced supervisors explore the key challenges and solutions in managing SLPAs remotely. You’ll learn how to establish clear communication, maintain compliance with state and professional regulations, and build a strong, collaborative relationship between SLPs and SLPAs – regardless of location.

This session is essential for SLPs who are new to remote supervision or looking to enhance their telepractice supervision skills. Topics include documentation best practices, leveraging technology tools, time management, and strategies to promote ongoing professional growth for SLPAs in virtual settings.

Whether you supervise SLPAs in schools or other settings, this webinar provides practical guidance to help you confidently navigate the evolving landscape of SLPA supervision.

What You'll Learn

After viewing this webinar, participants will be able to:

  • Describe legal and ethical expectations in the supervisory relationship between SLP supervisors and SLPAs.
  • Identify common challenges when supervisors are remote and SLPAs are onsite.
  • Apply strategies to boost SLPA’s performance and maximize student success.
