IASLT AFFILIATED SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS (SIGs) AND COMMUNITIES OF PRACTICE (CoPs)
Special Interest Groups (SIG) are professional communities that focus on specific areas. They allow like-minded professionals share knowledge and resources, address issues affecting service delivery, advocate for professionals and service users, and provide leadership. They are an invaluable source of information and support to speech & language therapists working around the country.
Join a SIG today to connect with other professionals that share your clinical interests, keep up to date with current best practice, interesting courses and study days.
