Diagnostic and Treatment Materials
The Kent State University Resource Room houses a significant number of diagnostic tests, materials, workbooks, etc. While students are not permitted to remove materials from the Resource Room to use at their external sites, they are strongly encouraged to use the Resource Room during their free time to review and practice tests, get inspiration for activities, and make copies of workbook materials for educational purposes.

Kent State University's Free Supervisory Professional Development
Starting in January 2020, ASHA's new standard requires all supervisors to have a one-time, 2-hour professional development course in the area of supervision.
We are happy to support our external clinical educators in completing this requirement through viewing a presentation by Mrs. Lynn Berk, one of our Senior Lecturers and Clinical Liaisons, on the supervisory process.
If you are interested in completing this requirement, please contact Dr. Sue Grogan-Johnson, Graduate Coordinator or Erin Kolonich, SLP Clinic Coordinator to gain access to the course.
