Leading Change in Continuing Education 

We’re like a conference—in your car, gym, laundry room… wherever!

Recorded Webinar: Moving from Caseload to Workload: Practicing at the Top of your License

This is a recorded playback of a live course from April 25th, 2023. The course and ASHA CEUs are available exclusively for SLP Nerdcast Members.

"Thank you for making this excellent, research-based learning opportunity that is both extremely accessible and affordable. This is the best kind of PD: it’s one hour at a time so I can learn and then have time to synthesize and apply. It provides information I can apply to my practice immediately; and I can listen and learn while I drive, fold laundry, etc. thanks for the research and resources!"

-Johanna H.
