SUMMARY:Cognitive Assessment of Diverse Populations - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Date & Time\nOct 30\, 2024 10:30 AM in\n\n\nDescription\nProfessional organizations that train practitioners to serve children in schools have expressed a longstanding concern over ‘equitable’ and ‘nondiscriminatory’ cognitive assessment for examinees from diverse racial/ethnic/language groups. Although there is much that has been discovered to support best practices\, there are some assessment-related concepts that are poorly understood and ill-defined. In addition\, alternative assessment and/or test interpretation practices that may be popularly promoted but have serious problems/deficiencies that undermine ethical behavior/best practices. This course will review these issues in detail (as informed by relevant research) and promote future directions that align with ethical and best practices. • Your name will appear on your certificate of attendance exactly as provided in the form below. Please ensure the name submitted is accurate and free of errors. You must participate for the full 2 hours to receive your CE.

SUMMARY:Pediatric Sleep-Disordered Breathing - Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Pediatric sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is an often- overlooked cause of many functional and behavioral concerns in children and adolescents. Insufficient sleep and impaired sleep quality can interfere with speech and language development\, neurocognitive function\, craniofacial and upper airway growth\, as well as overall health and well- being. \nInsufficient sleep and impaired sleep quality can interfere with speech\, language\, neurocognitive function\, craniofacial and upper airway growth\, and development\, in addition to overall health and well-being. More than a quarter of all children may suffer from some form of SDB\, with up to 5% having the more severe subtype\, obstructive sleep apnea. Since speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are often involved early in the assessment and treatment of communication and swallowing difficulties in the pediatric population\, they are uniquely positioned to screen for sleep problems in these children and make timely referrals when appropriate. In this course\, clinicians will learn the signs and symptoms of SDB\, understand the deleterious consequences of SDB\, gain a deeper understanding of the importance of early intervention for SDB\, and be able to integrate routine SDB screenings into their assessment protocols\, incorporating evidence-based screening tools to aid in the early diagnosis and treatment of pediatric and adolescent SDB. \nThe content of this program is germane to children\, students and clients ages 4-18 years old. \nHighlights\n\nExamine the detrimental impact of sleep- disordered breathing for the individuals on your caseload\nPractical assessments to begin screening for sleep-disordered breathing using evidence-based questionnaires and functional airway screening tools
