SLPA Texas

[mxr123930]

Hi guys, 

I was going to apply for my SLPA license and had a question over the process. It says I have to attach a Supervisor Responsibility Statement form which requires the supervisor that I will be working with to fill out. So do i have to find an SLP-A job first and a supervisor to participate before I apply for my license...? I can't get my license without this sheet being filled out and turned in with the rest of the forms,correct? Sorry, I just want to get some confirmation from a SLPA in texas!

Do you have your observation and supervision hours? If not, you don't necessarily need to be hired, but you need to find a supervisor to do those for you. Sometimes you can get someone to help you with those, but they wont hire or pay you. If you do have those hours, I think you still need a supervisor. Sometimes if you know an SLP, they are willing to be your supervisor. Good luck! It can be a really stressful process.
