Description

This course is a two day course with a specific focus on the speech production, including phonation, of children with mild to moderate neuromuscular disorders. This course is intended to be an introduction of the NDT theoretical principles and strategies for pediatric speech –language pathologists and SLPAs. Throughout this course, participants will learn to recognize general neuro-muscular deficits and analyze how these deficits relate to oral motor deficits and speech production errors. Facilitation lab will be utilized to enhance learning, as well as introduce treatment strategies. Analysis of case studies will also be completed for the purpose of differential diagnosis and direct application of course material.
