Starting a Private Practice (2015)

Presented By Tracie Lindblad, S-LP, M.Sc., M.Ed., Reg. CASLPO, BCBA

This webinar will focus on the steps and resources required to start a private practice in the profession of speech-language pathology. Specifically, it presents information regarding the three stages of business growth (in other words, the evolution of a business):

  • Stage 1: Experimenting at private practice (i.e., a cottage industry business)
  • Stage 2: Self-employed and here to stay
  • Stage 3: My business is expanding

Within each stage of business growth, we discuss the following necessary components of a successful private practice:

  • Business management and marketing
  • Staffing
  • Financial processes
  • Resources
Learning Outcomes

Participants will be able to:

  • identify which stage of business growth best describes their current practice situation;
  • identify the different business components within a private practice;
  • align their specific needs within each business component; and
  • plan or forecast their business growth and development.
