All courses →Teaching Generative Language for AAC Users Through Therapy Routines
This webinar explores how to support language growth for AAC users through simple, repeatable therapy routines. Participants will start by building a clear understanding of what "generative language" is and why it matters for communication growth. From there, we'll look at how structured routines can create consistent opportunities for practice. The session will also highlight the key features of effective routines, including how to keep them engaging, predictable, and adaptable to individual needs. Attendees will leave with practical ideas they can use right away to support AAC users who are working to build communication skills beyond single words.

Participants will learn what gestalt language processing is, why it matters, and how to support communication growth through natural, functional, and play-based interactions. The focus is on practical strategies that can be used immediately, i.e., using modeling in everyday routines, reducing pressure from questions, and supporting meaningful language through fun, engaging activities. Attendees will leave with clear ideas that can be implemented right away at home, in therapy sessions, or in classroom settings to better support authentic communication development.
Play with Purpose: Using Play Styles to Guide Activity Selection in Early Intervention
This course explores how clinicians can use children's preferred play styles to guide activity selection, material choice, and communication intervention in early childhood therapy. Participants will learn how play styles emerge through object play and social participation and how to use this framework to create more engaging, neurodiversity-affirming, and individualized sessions.
Building Tier 2 Vocabulary
Attendees will walk away from this session understanding benefits of working on vocabulary strategies rather than arbitrary word lists, benefits of focusing on Tier 2 vocabulary, and free resources to address goals. Perfect session for secondary school-based speech-language pathologists. Whether you are new to the field or veteran SLPs can walk away with practical ideas they can use the very next day.
Mindfulness Tools for SLPs and Students: Supporting Executive Functioning and Regulation in Practice
This session explores mindfulness as an evidence-informed, practical tool for supporting executive functioning and regulation in students. Participants will learn the difference between formal and informal mindfulness, examine research on mindfulness and executive functioning, and leave with actionable strategies to embed mindfulness into SLP sessions and educational environments.
AAC in Early Intervention: Practical Strategies for Improved Early Outcomes
Learn how to support early communication milestones using AAC! Discover how to foster early language with AAC, including device "babbling," gestures, and environmental sounds. Explore strategies such as joint attention and turn-taking and review practical examples of measurable early AAC goals for emerging communicators.
Reimagining AAC: A Tool Based Approach to Meaningful Communication
This workshop reframes AAC as a continuum of tools that support communication across routines, environments, and stages of development. Participants will explore how gestures, subtle cues, core boards, switches, robust systems, and partner strategies work together to create a flexible communication toolbox. We'll examine how shifting from a device‑focused mindset to a tool‑focused approach reduces pressure, increases access, and supports joyful interactions. Attendees will learn to identify AAC tools across the continuum, support communication in natural contexts, model language authentically, build confidence through low‑pressure opportunities, and create environments where AAC users have multiple ways to express themselves.
