SLPs are busy professionals who need answers immediately when confronted with difficult situations.
They need materials that have been field-tested and actually work. They need continuing education that gives them great strategies and skills to help them grow professionally. They need to bounce difficult evaluation questions off experts. Get your team the support they need!
- Successfully Address Increases in Caseload Size and Paperwork: New changes in our field demand new strategies to remain successful. We specialize in teaching the professional skills needed to reduce workload.
- Reduce Department Expenses: No travel or facility costs for events. All members easily attend trainings remotely with their computer or phone.
- Improve Retention: Supported growing professionals are happy professionals. Through direct email, monthly Q&As, and a Question Forum, we have your staffs’ questions covered.
- Easily Maintain Compliance: We manage all Continuing Education records, certificate issuing, and submission to ASHA (the American Speech-Language Hearing Association).
- Get Live Support on the Most Important Topics: Monthly Masterclass and Q&A topics are chosen based on member request and are scheduled around peak work hours. Classes are recorded and can be watched later.
- Add Skill Sets to Your Current Group: We can’t always find new professionals, especially with specific skill sets like bilingualism or cleft palate. However, with 80+ ASHA CEU courses you can train your current staff on new skills to meet your group’s needs.

Leading a Team of Speech-Language Pathologists has changed dramatically.
- Speech Language Pathologists are now experiencing:
- Larger caseloads
- More paperwork
- Greater distances to drive
- More campuses or sites to serve
- And unprecedented diversity both in the types of disorders they serve and the home languages their clients speak
This means they have less time for professional development at the point in their careers that they need it the most.
These recent changes have made the job of Speech Team Leads that much more difficult:
- Retaining staff
- Supporting current employees
- Finding and developing new skill sets to respond to explosions in populations like Autism and bilingual students
- Operating within limited budgets
SLP Impact is designed to keep your staff inspired and put training, support, research, and valuable materials right at their fingertips.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept purchase orders?
Yes! You can fax a purchase order to 512-458-9573. You may also email it to [email protected]. Please indicate a contact person’s name and email address for prompt processing.
What if my staff members have questions or need support?
Community and support are exactly what SLP Impact is about. Once enrolled, they will receive information on how to best contact us via email or phone, submit questions for the Q&A sessions, ask about the coursework, or contact our technical support team for any system (online access or technology) issues.
May I suggest a topic for a course or Masterclass?
Yes, our content is driven by the current needs of our field and the feedback from SLPs just like you. That means that topics of each master class are determined by members. Plus, when there is a lot of need or interest, that is how we determine the focus of winter and summer conferences. There is a survey form inside SLP Impact to choose topics and people routinely email us when they see amazing presenters that they want us to bring in.
Are ASHA CEUs provided for the Masterclasses and Q&A sessions?
Yes! You will receive .15 ASHA CEU (1 1/2 credit hour) for attending each monthly Master Class.
When do you report the ASHA CEUs?
Our “course offering” ends on the last day of each month. We then have an additional 45 days to report the credits to ASHA. Please make sur that your mailing address and ASHA number are entered into your My Account detairs so that credits can be reported properly.
What date will ASHA CEUs be recorded on my registry?
You may not see your course on the ASHA transcript immediately after completion. However, the ASHA CEU credit on your transcript will reflect the month in which you took the course.
I missed a live Masterclass or Q & A session, can I still view it?
Yes. The recorded version is added to the CEU library for you to watch at your leisure.
I am already a member. What happens to my account when my team joins?
Many members introduce SLP Impact to their team and districts so that they can participate in all of the classes and share with their coworkers. When your district or team joins, you will receive a code to use for registration. If you purchased an annual membership iwithin the same school year for yourself, you will be reimbursed.
Can I be the Team Lead or Administrator for my team and also be a member?
Absolutely, most team leads are also SLPs and we love having you in the community. Just count yourself when letting us know how many team members you have.
