Lidcombe Program Training - Online Course
About Course:
The Lidcombe Program is a behavioral treatment for early childhood stuttering that is delivered by speech-language pathologists through structured parent training and ongoing clinical supervision.
The program is designed for preschool and early school-age children who stutter and is implemented within everyday speaking situations. Parents are trained by the SLP to provide specific verbal feedback to the child’s speech, while the clinician monitors progress and guides treatment decisions.
The course is delivered in English
