In this practical and thought-provoking course, Trina Becker, MS, CCC-SLP, and Beth Bergstrom, MS, CCC-SLP, walk you through a real pediatric AAC case featuring a nonsymbolic communicator.
You’ll start by digging into the case history to uncover what’s really driving the communication challenges. From there, you’ll learn how to identify the child’s unique profile, including strengths, needs, and the everyday impact of their communication barriers.
Using that profile as a foundation, you’ll explore how to set meaningful goals and choose intervention strategies that make sense for this child. Trina and Beth share their clinical reasoning throughout, helping you see how to combine assessment data, client values, and the latest research to guide your decisions.
If you work with early communicators or nonspeaking children, this course will give you new ways to think critically, plan effectively, and support communication that matters in daily life.
