Recalibrating AAC is a capacity-building system for SLPs tired of carrying the responsibility of AAC alone. Finally build a team that can partner with you to create an environment where AAC can actually thrive.
Pre-sale open now! $67 now through September 7th. Price goes up to $97 on Sept 8th.
You walk into a classroom and the para is already modeling on the core board before you’ve said a word.
One bad day is just one bad day and progress doesn’t get derailed because everyone understands the main, overall goal here is AAC trajectory, not buy-in.
Your documentation already reflects your actual workload (not just the therapy minutes) so admin can’t act like you’re only complaining.
Your service delivery model is the perfect mix of push-in support, 1:1 therapy, and indirect services tailored to your unique caseload and workload.
Teachers and paras actively reach out to you with questions, suggestions, and solutions instead of hiding the device away because things got chaotic.
The whole team supports AAC and for the first time in years, AAC in your building isn’t just the SLP’s job.
The goal is tiny, one-degree shifts that set your trajectory in a slightly different direction to make big changes for your students, your team, and your capacity.
That’s what I teach inside…
Recalibrating AAC for Classroom Teams isn’t just another training that simply teaches AAC buy-in tips and tricks. This is the game plan that no one teaches: how to actually move a team, one degree at a time, to mitigate SLP burn-out and workload , increase team capacity, and get started training teams quickly and effectively.
Treat your team like you treat your students and presume competence. Trade “gotta get buy-in ASAP” for a trajectory you can actually sustain.
The exact framework, decision tree, and personality-specific approach for moving a real classroom team, not a textbook one.
Document as you build capacity so your workload is defensible and protected next time admin hands you a bigger caseload.
Buying a course (in this economy?!) is no small investment. Whenever I update any course, no need to re-purchase newer versions. When you buy this course the first time, you’ll always get updates in your course portal at no additional cost.
I’ve also stood in that doorway. I’ve modeled AAC on Monday and watched it disappear by Wednesday, more times than I can count, before I understood why. When I figured out that it boiled down to just being a human showing up for another human, everything changed.
Since then, I’ve trained classroom teams to support AAC for over a decade. Over a thousand SLPs have gone through my programs or sat in my trainings. I keep getting invited back to speak on this exact problem, because it doesn’t go away on its own and it’s happening in every classroom.
I’ve analyzed the research, my own experiences and perspectives, and extracted feedback from real school-based SLPs to put together a resource that is worth the little time you have to increase capacity, reduce your workload, and start making meaningful change for classroom teams.
Probably not everything that’s built specifically for your team’s personality. Module 2 gives you five distinct team profiles and a different approach for each, because the Perfectionist on your team and the Veteran on your team need two different conversations. And remember: not everyone has to be excited about AAC on day one. That was never the bar. One degree of progress is.
Yes. This course qualifies for XX ASHA Professional Development Hours. The course drops live on Tuesday, September 8th so once the course is live, I can give a more definitive number for hours.
You’re covered by a 7-day, no-questions-asked refund. If it’s not right for you, request it within 7 days of purchase and you’ll get your money back. No forms to justify, no hoops.
You’ll get your login link by email right after checkout. The course itself goes live at that link on September 8th, so if you’re joining during presale, hang onto that email until doors open. We’ll also send you an email so you don’t forget.
No. I didn’t just repackage that course. I built past it with a completely different goal in mind. The buy-in strategies from the original course didn’t stop working, but this course is more comprehensive with two additional essential elements not included in the first. If you purchased my AAC in the Classroom workshop, Recalibrating AAC takes supporting AAC in the classroom to the next level.
