We invite you to participate in our 2008 Bilingual Therapies Symposium to be held in Los Cabos, México, July 17th - 19th! This unique symposium is designed to build on the knowledge base of practicing bilingual speech-language pathologists by emphasizing current research and theory and highlighting how they can be applied to everyday practice. For two days, presenters will hold two-hour sessions dealing with current topics in bilingual speech-language pathology.

A primary goal of this year’s symposium is to allow attendees to interact with speakers and other clinicians. The conference is arranged so that each participant will attend all five presentations in a smaller group setting. These sessions will allow participants to receive information and ask questions about current knowledge and practices in bilingual speech-language assessment and intervention.

The Hilton Los Cabos Beach and Golf Resort will host our Bilingual Therapies Symposium. Located at the tip of México’s Baja Peninsula, this scenic paradise boasts 11 acres of golden beach on the Sea of Cortez, two swimming pools, and breathtaking views. The Hilton Los Cabos sits between quaint, colonial San José del Cabo and fun-filled Cabo San Lucas, both of which are a brief shuttle ride away from the resort.

In addition to the opportunity to visit this beautiful part of México, the symposium is a great chance to share ideas with colleagues and receive up to 1.0 CEUS (10 hours)!
