    As SLPs, we know that involving parents in their child’s intervention can come with challenges. These might include achieving parent buy-in, accommodating different learning styles, and knowing how to structure each part of the process. 

    MSHA has partnered with The Hanen Centre™ to bring you a complimentary online presentation on an effective framework for parent coaching:

    From Assessment to Intervention: The Complete Hanen Parent Coaching Framework
    December 11th, 2025
    (Registration deadline: December 9th, 2025)

    Time options: 10:00 - 11:30 AM -OR- 5:30-7:00 PM

    Registration for members only will be thru the Hanen Centre. Register here and you will receive an email with the registration link from Hanen. 

    Eligible for 0.15 ASHA CEUs, this engaging presentation will demonstrate an evidence-based model that:

    • Effectively engages parents from the beginning to ensure their best learning.

    • Supports SLPs through every step of the process, from assessment to goal setting to strategy selection to parent coaching.

    • Provides a clear structure complete with handouts, coaching slides and videos, while also ensuring room for individualized clinical judgment.  

    • Can be applied flexibly within your service delivery, including in group and individual sessions, as well as in-person and online.

    ASHA disclaimer: This course is offered for 0.15 ASHA CEUs (Introductory level; Professional area). Full attendance and participation during the ninety minutes are required. This course focuses on the Hanen Early Language Program and aspects of the Hanen approach to early language intervention and will include no or limited information on other similar or related products or services. 

    Please note: This presentation was also offered in Spring 2025. If you attended the April 29th session, you’ll already have viewed this content. However, you’re able to receive ASHA CEUs both times, if you’d like a refresher.
