3 Factors to Consider when Choosing Speech
Pathology Programs
Speech pathology can be a wonderful career choice, one that allows individuals to engage in a
rewarding career that helps people and pays well. However, the training you get in this career is
absolutely critical.
As such, you have to make sure you enroll in the right speech pathology program. Here are
three things to consider when you are trying to find the best speech pathology programs.
What sort of support does the school offer?
The training that a speech pathology program provides is obviously critical, and unquestionably
the most important factor when it comes to deciding what program to enroll in. However, a good
school should offer more than that.
When checking out a program's offerings, find out what they offer in terms of post-graduation
support. Do they have a network of alumni that you could potentially tap into for training,
certification, or employment opportunities?
Do they have some sort of career center that can help you prepare a resume and find a job? Do
they offer career fairs, and can they help you find internships?
Post-educational support is critical in a job market as competitive as this one, and a school's
educational offers simply aren't the only important thing anymore.
Flexibility
In this day and age, a school has to be flexible with what classes they offer and how they offer
those classes. In speech pathology, some online classes may be tough, of course. However,
there are probably many components that can be completed online.
As such, find out what sort of flexibility a school offers. Do they have any minimum requirements
for how quickly you have to complete the program? What offerings can be done at night? What
about evening or weekend classes? Are there recorded classes that you can complete on your
schedule?
Flexibility has to be customized to your needs, of course, so make sure that a school can
accommodate your busy schedule before spending a dime on tuition.

2. How good is the school?
The above two factors are unquestionably important, but it goes without saying that you have to
make sure that any school gives you the educational experience that will best prepare you to
enter the field and do good work. As such, you should do extensive research into the quality of
the school. Some questions you can ask include:
● How do alumni feel about its educational offerings?
● Are alumni generally successful after completing the school's program?
● Are the professors qualified, certified, and experts in their field?
● How big are the class sizes? Will your educational needs be met?
● What opportunities will you have to speak with other students, work together, and
experience speech pathology in a real-world setting?
There are many speech pathology programs out there like those from

that best suits your needs. Do your research and find the program that works best for you.
