NEW! Online Speech-Language Pathology Assistant (TED)!

If your busy life is keeping you from getting the degree you always wanted, Mitchell Tech has the answer!  Enroll in our new ONLINE Speech-Language Pathology Assistant (TED) program!

• Students take SLPA courses through an asynchronous online learning system which allows them to access course content and complete coursework at the time of day and location that is most convenient for them.  Courses are offered in sequence in a cohort model, allowing students to interact with and learn from each other.
• Local mentors assist students with online learning technology, provide study assistance, offer personal support, and serve as a liaison between student and online instructor throughout the program.
• Regional adjunct SLPA instructors train students and validate competencies in hands-on, technical skills required for employment as an SLPA.   
• 2- and 3-year options for completing coursework and clinical fieldwork are available.
• Classes start in fall, spring and summer semesters.
• Use of laptop computers, iPad technology, and software are provided to the student while enrolled at MTI.

• A solution to the problem of unfilled positions for speech-language pathologists (SLPs) in education settings.
• An opportunity for employers to support SLPs with properly trained support personnel, allowing SLPs to better manage current caseloads and extend services to previously unserved or underserved populations in the school district.
• Relief for current SLPs from the burden of excessively large caseloads, decreasing the probability of staff “burn-out” from high clinical and clerical demands.
• Opportunity to “grow your own” SLPAs by encouraging current or potential employees to enter the program and by offering support in the form of tuition reimbursement, time at work to complete coursework, and fieldwork placement.
• Opportunity to train and employ individuals who already live in or near your service area and understand the unique characteristics and needs of the individuals you serve, increasing the likelihood of longer staff retention, better client (student and parent) satisfaction, and improved student performance.

No cost difference between online and traditional classroom delivery—no hidden fees!
