Description
Voice is one of the most rewarding — and most intimidating — areas of SLP practice. The anatomy is intricate, the evaluation tools are specialized, and the treatment decisions require understanding pathology at a level most generalist programs only scratch the surface of.
Ten modules cover everything from vocal fold microstructure to treatment planning with real clinical cases. You’ll learn to evaluate, diagnose, and treat — and to know when surgery, not therapy, is the answer.

- Conduct comprehensive voice evaluation including perceptual rating
