University Program Survey
The Canadian Association of Speech-Language Pathologists and
Audiologists (CASLPA) recently distributed a survey to the nine
universities across the country that offer speech-language pathology
and audiology programs. The purpose of this survey was to gain
insight into the similarities and differences between the programs
offered, to monitor any important trends that may be affecting
the profession now or in the future, and to provide context
as part of a larger research program by CASLPA to assess the
current state of the profession in Canada.
