How do you write SLP credentials?

By Zippia Team - Apr. 20, 2022

You write SLP credentials on your resume in a specific section for education and credentials.

To create a resume as a speech-language pathologist (SLP), you must be sure to include the minimum of an entry-level graduate degree (MA, MS, MEd) from a program accredited by the Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA).

In the education section of your resume, you should list your degree information according to the following template:

  • The name of your school

  • Location of your school

  • Dates attended and graduation date (or expected graduation date)

  • Your field of study and degree major

  • Your GPA (only if it's above 3.5)

  • Any academic honors, relevant coursework, or making the dean's list

  • Relevant extracurricular activities, study abroad programs, and accolades

So an example of this for a speech pathologist would look like this:

University of Pittsburgh - Pittsburgh, PA | 2016-2018
Master of Arts: Speech-Language Pathology | GPA 3.9
Accolades: Dean's List, Honors Society

Next, you should include your licensing credential. This should show what state you are licensed in, the licensing body, the date you received your license, and when it expires.

For example:

ASHA Certification in Speech-Language Pathology

  • Illinois License in Speech-Language Pathology, received June 2017 (exp. June 2019).
