Learning unit contents
The purpose of the various activities comprising this course is to help students develop their professional project.
This is the second course in the 'Professional Development of the Speech & Language Therapist' programme present throughout the bachelor's degree. Unlike the course in the first year of the bachelor's degree, the profession is considered, in the 'Positioning' section, through the competences of the speech & language therapist. Regardless of the area in which the speech & language therapist is working, all speech & language therapists master common competences: prevention, assessment, therapy, professional relationship, expertise. These five competences are dealt with in class through several learning activities.
Competence related to the expertise will be particularly developed within the course in order to equip the students with disposable resources useful to better seize the opportunities for learning during the initial training and for the future professional practice. These disposable resources will target: change management and challenge, workflow, project management and procrastination.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
This course supports students through the various learning activities, helping them to understand the five competences of the speech & language therapist as defined in ULiège's competency framework. The following facets are studied in more detail:
1) the 3 levels of prevention mechanisms in speech therapy;
2) the stages of an assessment procedure and the professional attitudes adopted;
3) the stages of a care procedure and the professional attitudes to be adopted;
4) the functions and usefulness of research for the practice of speech & language therapy and relevant information sources;
5) the mecanisms of change and non-change;
6) project management;
7) the mecanisms of procrastination and the facilitators of the passage from intention to behavior.

Remark concerning spelling : French language is one of the basic competences in order to work as a speech & language therapist. As such, if the file handed in contains more than 10 spelling mistakes (usage and/or agreements) during the first exam session, students will receive a fail for the first exam session and they will have to submit it again during the second exam session. If the file is handed in during the second session and contains more than 10 spelling mistakes, two points will be deducted from the student's course mark.
Remark concerning the deadline for the report : Students must respect the deadline for handing in the file. If a file is handed in late during the first exam session, students will receive a fail and will have to hand it in during the second exam session.
