The Clinical Doctorate in Speech-Language Pathology (SLP-D) program at the University of Cincinnati is not subject to accreditation by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), as ASHA does not accredit clinical doctorate programs. The University of Cincinnati and all regional campuses are accredited by the Higher Learning Commission.
However, this program is designed for licensed, certified speech-language pathologists who already hold the Certificate of Clinical Competence in Speech-Language Pathology (CCC-SLP) from ASHA. This program follows ASHA’s guidelines for the Clinical Doctorate in Speech-Language Pathology and builds on the foundational knowledge and credentials provided by an ASHA-accredited master’s degree program.
