Medical speech-language pathology is undeniably rewarding.
It’s also a career path that changes rapidly with new research, evolving scope of practice, and a vast repertoire of medical knowledge that isn’t always easy to keep up with.
We remember the first time we were asked to take vitals, record oxygen saturation levels, and note lab values for a patient…
In that moment, we had no clue why an SLP would need to know all of that.
And we've learned that we’re not alone.
Which is why we are beyond excited to introduce something new for med SLPs who are seeking deep-dive education directly related to their clinical work. (or clinical interests!)
MedSLPEd is an approved ASHA CEU provider offering live and recorded online courses that fill the gap between grad school, research, and clinical practice. Each course is 8-10 hours long, goes far beyond the textbook rhetoric, and incorporates case-based learning.
MedSLP Ed invites you to explore full-day courses that blend together the research, real case studies, patient perspectives, and interprofessional considerations.
It’s critical to know WHY we do the things we do.
Here’s a small sample of what we have in the works…
- Julie Huffman, MA, CCC-SLP on Esophageal Dysphagia
- Jeff Kleim Ph.D. on Neuroplasticity
- Andrea Hayes, M.H.A., CCC-SLP, BCS-S on Cranial Nerves
- Jennifer Tetanowski, PhD, MA, CCC-SLP on Conversation Based Assessment and Treatment
- Laurie Wennerholm, MA, CCC-SLP, BCS-S on Head and Neck Cancer
- Michelle Weber Dehgan, MA, CCC-SLP, BCS-S on Spinal Cord Injury
- Maura English Silverman, MS, CCC/SLP on Aphasia
- Katlyn Elizabeth McGrattan, PhD on Pediatric Dysphagia
- Shauna Berube M.S. CCC-SLP on Strokes
…. And many more in the works!!

MedSLP Ed is not a replacement of what grad school offers
or what professors provide.
It’s added support for the practicing clinician that
builds upon grad school and clinical experience.
There are TONS of brilliant medical SLP courses, subscriptions, and memberships out there, and we’re excited to add this library of medically-intensive courses for SLPs to the list!
With a growing library of full-day courses that are at least 8 hours of education each, we hope you’ll find something that’s right for you and your clinical goals.
Maybe you're a medical SLP because you found a passion for problem-solving and changing lives.
Or maybe you’re driven to help others rediscover the power of communication.
And like so many others, maybe you savor the success when the patient you worked so hard with to access instrumental swallow studies and the best dysphagia therapy finally gets to enjoy their favorite home-cooked meal again when no one else thought it was possible.
Our goal is to provide a deep-dive library of education relevant to your clinical needs and core passions surrounding the work that you do everyday (with tools and information you can apply at work the next day!)
MedSLP Ed is designed to support the growth of your medically-based clinical skills through full-day medically-intensive SLP courses.
Because it fosters growth far beyond the literature.
Because it’s based on real experience and researched methods.
Because it goes beyond the SLP-only bubble and incorporates patient and interprofessional considerations
(like what to do when a patient chooses not to follow your recommendations,
or how to collaborate with respiratory therapists)
Just like our current continuing education model,
MedSLP Ed covers a broad scope.
And on top of that, MedSLP Ed takes a holistic and realistic approach to your professional and medical growth.
We wanted to provide an option for medical SLP continuing education that
requires a minimum of 8 hours per topic in order to allow…
More Case Studies
More Research
More Perspectives
More examples on how to actually apply what you learn at work.
If this sounds like something you’ve been looking for,
we’re beyond excited to invite you to our library (and future courses)!
