Assistant Education and Training policy statement and consultation

A working group was set up by the RCSLT in April 2008 to draft a formal policy statement setting out the RCSLT position on education and training requirements and opportunities for Assistants.

The RCSLT acknowledges the important role that Assistants have in the delivery of effective speech and language therapy services and it is hoped this policy statement will be supportive in promoting the learning opportunities available to Assistants.

RCSLT members were invited to take part in a consultation on the draft policy statement for Assistants. The consultation ended on 1 December 2008.
