RECRUITMENT & RETENTION INFO: Recruiting at the Arizona Speech-Language-Hearing Association Convention Soon!

The Arizona Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ArSHA) will hold its annual convention in Tucson on Friday, April 12, and Saturday, April 13. There will be hundreds of speech-language pathologists (SLPs), speech-language technicians (SLTs), and speech-language pathology assistants (SLPAs) attending this event. 

The ADE/ESS sponsors the public school strand at the convention to support high-quality, relevant professional learning for school-based speech personnel. This year’s sponsored topics include eligibility for speech sound disorders, working memory, interprofessional collaboration in schools, and gestalt language processing. 

ADE/ESS will also have a table in the exhibit hall for recruiting SLPs, SLTs, and SLPAs to work in Arizona’s public schools. We plan to highlight all SLP/SLT/SLPA positions that are posted on ADE/ESS's Arizona Education Employment Board (AEBB). 

We typically see a sharp increase in visits to the job board during and immediately after recruiting at an event like this. To be included in this recruitment effort, please post your speech positions on the AEEB by Monday, April 8. Review the Effective Job Posting Guide and act now to post your open positions! If you need assistance with reviewing or writing a job description that captures your PEA's strengths from an SLP perspective, contact Mary Keeney.
