Distinguished Early Career Professional (ECP) Certificate
The Distinguished Early Career Professional (ECP) Certificate was created to recognize and identify ECPs in the fields of audiology and speech-language pathology who are making an impact in the areas of leadership, volunteering, or advocacy at the local, state, and/or national level. This will also highlight the involvement of ECPs in their local, state, and community speech-language-hearing associations.
Application submissions open on Thursday, July 10, 2025 and close on Friday, August 8, 2025 at 3:00 p.m. ET.
