IC at the 2025 ASHA Convention

Each year, our faculty proudly participate in the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) Convention—one of the largest professional development gatherings for audiologists; speech-language pathologists; speech, language, and hearing scientists; and speech-language pathology and audiology assistants. We are excited to highlight the expertise and contributions our faculty bring to this influential event.

Faculty from Ithaca College’s Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology Department will once again share their work at the 2025 ASHA Convention.

The annual ASHA Convention offers a robust in-person education program with supplemental virtual content. This year's convention will be held November 20–22, 2025 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, 801 Allen Y. Lew Place NW, Washington, DC 20001.
