Functional goal setting is a core component of effective speech pathology practice, supporting meaningful progress and improved outcomes for individuals across a range of communication and swallowing needs. Developing clear, client-centred goals enables clinicians to align interventions with real-life priorities and functional outcomes.
This session focuses on building a strong understanding of functional goal setting, particularly for students and early career speech pathologists preparing for clinical practice.
In this webinar, you’ll learn:
-
- What functional means in the context of everyday therapy and real-life outcomes
- How to create goals that are client-centred, meaningful, and outcome-focused
