Hey SLPs!
Does working with clients who use AAC rattle your clinical confidence?
What if you could support AAC use by applying the skills you already have?
Gain certainty about AAC implementation and guide your clients towards meaningful communication in the real world.
We know the voice in your head.
The one that makes you wonder if you are the right fit for a client when AAC is involved because, hey, you aren’t the “expert.” The one that makes you question if AAC is even appropriate for the client because progress has stalled.
We know what the moment can feel like when your client pulls out an AAC device for the first time. You smile, you nod…and you quietly panic. That ends here.
Have you been looking for an AAC professional development option that goes beyond the basics?
Are you on the hunt for real, practical guidance and actionable next steps?
AAC FEELS SCARY!
Yes, using AAC in everyday life can feel intimidating.
Yes, it is a complex concept.
But no, it doesn’t need to be overwhelming!
MAKE AAC FIRST FEEL APPROACHABLE…
Imagine:
You are handed an AAC implementation roadmap.
You recognize that you actually already have relevant skills.
…THEN HAVE AAC CASES FEEL LIKE SECOND NATURE…
Practice:
You learn how to follow a framework that applies to all clients.
You begin to integrate AAC into your existing clinical practices, one case at a time.
SO THAT YOUR CLIENTS CAN COMMUNICATE FOR REAL
Apply:
Your AAC guidance becomes clear, and your clients naturally feel the impact.
Achieve:
This program is about connecting your foundational knowledge with new tips.
You will not be starting from scratch, which saves time for you AND your clients.
We are pioneering a new standard in AAC education.
AAC courses should NOT just focus on theory. They should NOT just lecture about the research.
They should NOT just state what to do. They MUST also teach you how to do it.
We know that including authentic examples, problem solving strategies, and a village to cheer you on will lead to the strongest communication outcomes for the people we dedicate our hearts and hustle to - our clients!
Ready to take the first step towards effective AAC implementation?
Using AAC at home and on the go can be easier than you think! We’re giving away our AAC Modeling Map for FREE because we know it’s the resource that SLPs are seeking and that it is part of the solution that their clients need to become stronger communicators.
Introducing The AAC Achievement Lab!
An innovative education program that teaches SLPs to approach AAC caseloads using the skills they already have combined with practical resources that make it all manageable.
The path towards clinical confidence and authentic communication growth for clients starts here and now with experience-backed content for real life.
Hey SLPS, whether you are a new graduate or an experienced clinician, this program is designed to offer fresh perspectives and valuable takeaways for every level.
You already know more about AAC than you realize! This program bridges the gap between an SLP’s existing clinical skills and a lack of confidence in applying them to cases that involve AAC.
Through thoughtful examples and guided exploration, SLPs will learn to approach AAC implementation with clarity and assurance. All elements of the program were designed with the terms “authentic” and “concrete” at the heart. SLPs can expect to find research-based concepts woven within everyday scenarios.
This program is about unlocking flexibility, not following rigid theory that simply doesn’t always work in the real world!
Learn from Elena Fader Hurlburt, a licensed clinician who was fascinated by AAC even before she became an SLP. Backed by teaching and leadership experience, research and clinical writing expertise, and a strong record supporting clients of all ages and abilities, the information is proven to be relevant and easy to follow.

Hi, I’m Elena
I was once told that I am in my element when I speak about AAC and share its power with others.
People consistently state that my passion for teaching others about communication always shines through brightly.
These have been the biggest compliments of my career because I genuinely feel a fire light inside me when I see opportunities for communication education that will fuel clients forward.
Let me help you AND your clients move forward.
It would bring me joy, and bring you peace.
13+ years of clinical experience
30+ AAC presentations given
600+ people using my resources globally
20,000+ people impacted by my therapeutic work, resources, and trainings across all 50 United States and over 50 countries including Canada, Australia, Ireland, Norway, France, Germany, UK, Italy, Russia, Philippines, & Belize
“AAC is not a mysterious specialty area that should only be delegated to ‘experts.’ It is a powerful branch of speech therapy that can be embraced by all clinicians who are willing to extend their existing skills in creative ways.”
