Description: Adherence to a Code of Ethics is essential for both Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) and Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs). In January 2020, The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), launched new SLP Certification Standards. Many updates and changes were released and require action, including the requirement that ALL certificate holders complete a minimum of 1 of 30 Clinical Maintenance Hours (.1 ASHA CEU) in the professional development area of ETHICS. Similarly, BCBAs must complete 4 of 32 CEUS in the area of ETHICS.
Special Learning Inc. teamed up with Tamara Kasper, a dually certified SLP/BCBA, to help practitioners understand what those requirements ask of them. Please note: this session is professional development only — it does not carry ASHA or BACB continuing-education credit and does not count toward the ethics requirements described above. We offered a 2-hour session that covered the new ASHA mandates, and current BACB mandates, and reviewed the ethical codes established by ASHA and the BACB. This session included a case review that revealed common ethical complaints from both fields and how to foster collaboration across disciplines.
