Improving Outcomes in Schools: Building on Student Strengths
June 18–30, 2025 | Online Conference
Over 13 days, learn about the benefits of focusing on strengths—rather than deficits—when working with students on a variety of speech-language and academic outcomes.
Get practical strategies to:
- Boost student engagement and participation in intervention by tailoring your approach to each student's unique abilities
- Identify your unique strengths as an SLP and leverage them to overcome common challenges
- Strengthen collaborative relationships with students, teachers, and parents to create a supportive learning environment
- Build on student strengths when working with a variety of clinical cases, including autistic students, multilingual students, students who stutter, and those who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC)
- Reorient your approach to intervention to elevate students beyond being defined by their communication needs
This conference was previously offered in October 2024 under the title “Using a Strengths-Based Approach in Schools.”
