Speech-Language Pathologist – Clinical Fellowship Year (CFY)

AnthroMed Education • South Holland, IL

5d • Onsite

About The Position

AnthroMed Education is a school-based therapy provider of in-person Speech-Language Pathology services. We serve the needs of K-12 schools and their student populations by delivering the highest quality in-person speech-pathology services in a virtual world. Our mission is to create the most enriching and supportive environment for our SLPs so they can learn and grow professionally, be a part of our larger SLP community, learn and grow their clinical skill set, while achieving better therapeutic outcomes and making a difference in children’s lives. Since our founding, we have made a positive different in hundreds of schools and impacted thousands of students with disabilities in the communities we serve.

This is not just a job. You’ll be part of a structured CFY Program designed specifically for new graduates entering school-based practice. Our program has a 100% track record of CFs successfully completing their CCC’s. Our CFY’s finish their first year feeling supported, confident, and prepared to practice independently. By the end of the school year and your mentorship requirements, you should feel like a full-fledged, confident SLP, not just someone who finished their hours.

Most CFs worry about being overwhelmed, feeling unsupported, being “the only SLP in the building” with no one to talk to or seek support from, and not knowing what you don’t know. Our CFY Program exists specifically to prevent that. You’ll be surrounded by people who remember what it felt like to be new Clinical Fellow, and who are committed to helping you succeed as a practicing clinician, not just get through the year.

We built this position, and our entire CFY Program, specifically for graduate students like you.

You’ll work as a school-based Speech-Language Pathologist in Michigan, in-person in a school district, supporting students with a wide range of communication needs while completing your ASHA-required Clinical Fellowship. This is a supported, mentored role, not a “figure it out on your own” situation.

We don’t view the CF year as the finish line — it’s the starting point. Our CFs leave the year:
Confident in school-based practice
Grounded in ethical decision-making
Comfortable collaborating with teams and families
Ready to step into their role as a CCC-SLP

If you’re looking for a CF year where you are supported, challenged, mentored, and genuinely cared for, we’d love to talk with you. Apply to the AnthroMed Education Clinical Fellowship Program Today!
