Mentoring and Shadowing Opportunities
Expand Your SCOPE is a free national program for SLPs who are already certified, but want additional mentoring and shadowing opportunities in order to improve the quality, depth, breath, consistency, and continuity of the care they provide is available. Change the culture of continuing education for SLPs across the country – making lifelong mentoring and shadowing the norm instead of the exception. This will help align the SLP field closer to the models in other educational and healthcare professions, increase clinician confidence and competence, as well as improve flexibility for SLPs moving between specialties and settings.

Research Submissions to NSLHA

Research Submissions to NSLHA

NSLHA will post research participant recruitment flyers on its website if all of the following conditions are met.

Responsibility for the design, conduct and dissemination of the research rests solely with the investigator(s).

  1. Investigator or key personnel on the project must be a NSLHA member in good standing.
  2. Project must have IRB approval. Formal approval must be clearly visible on the posted flyer (e.g., IRB dated stamp of approval) or clearly indicated by the investigators using other recruitment means (e.g. videos).
  3. Contact information must be clearly visible on the posted recruitment materials.
  4. Investigators agree to submit their research findings for presentation at the annual NSLHA Convention.
  5. When feasible to do so (e.g. when results are published), investigators agree to provide a brief written summary of key research findings for NSLHA to share with the membership via its website.

Flyers will be removed from the website at the earliest time point that reflects: 1) the IRB expiration date listed on the IRB approval; 2) one year after posting; or 3) the request to do so by the investigator.
