We set one speech pathology conference in the summer so that school and clinic SLPs can take advantage of their summer schedule and vacation. Plus! very few speech language pathology conferences are attended by professionals from around the world. We wanted this event to be international in the sense that we go to another country but also international by having SLPs from all over the world attend.

Therapy Abroad has already traveled with students during the pandemic without incident. They choose countries that have been hyper-vigilant about health and safety because of their dependence on tourism. We are confident this speech pathology study abroad program will be successful based on each trip we have hosted so far.  If it is cancelled, you are guaranteed a full refund.

We’ve had people reach out to clarify whether they can earn CEUs if they are in between these stages (e.g. out of graduate school but not yet started in a clinical fellowship). We consulted with ASHA on this and they shared that in order to get CEUs that go into the ASHA CE registry, you either have to be a graduate student, a Clinical Fellow, or a fully licensed SLP. If you do not meet one of those criteria, you can get a certificate showing that you completed the hours to share with your employer, however, the hours will not go toward your 3-year ASHA certification interval (the three-year period in which you need to earn 30 hours of credit). For those of you who are in a CF, your CE Interval will not start until you are fully licensed.

All that said, we encourage you to come even if you aren’t putting hours on your registry. You’ll have fun, learn a lot, and get an experience of a lifetime!

What has been one of the most common questions about the trip? Can I bring someone? The answer is yes. Not only that, but we are also putting together some plans for them while you attend the workshop (in case the amazing hotels and nearby attractions aren’t enough!).

And remember those grad school friends you never see enough of? Have them come too!

Therapy Abroad takes groups of speech pathology students abroad over 25 times each year. They have a relationship, knowledge, and familiarity with the countries that we choose.

Safety is a systematic and comprehensive process and we understand that safety concerns are a part of planning for any overseas travel. We have organized this program from beginning to end so that we can account for all of the details. Our goal is to provide you with a smooth and worry-free educational travel experience and superior professional development.

Using prior years as an example, trips cost around $2500. This price is subject to change.

Based on recent attendance to the 4-day national convention, SLPs report spending $2500-$3500 for flights, entrance, hotel, and food, earning 8-12 CEU hours. We have been able to keep prices about the same, include incredible experiences, and award 30 CEU hours.
