Overview

In this advanced and interactive course, case studies will be utilized to guide attendees through analyzing children’s speech for the characteristics of childhood apraxia of speech (CAS). Assessment tasks and diagnostic tools will be briefly reviewed, but the majority of the time will be spent analyzing videos of children to identify and note characteristics of CAS and complete diagnostic tools such as the Mayo 10+1 chart. The goal of this presentation is to apply the information learned in the course “Utilizing the Latest Tools to Identify and Diagnose Childhood Apraxia of Speech CAS)” presented live on May 31, 2024 and available for viewing on www.knowledgeisnow.com.
