During the week, speech pathologists all across the country are aiming to make Australia a ‘Nation for Communication’ by increasing the understanding of communication disorders and how they impact on people’s lives. Learn more about ‘Nation for Communication’ by visiting their webpage.

As part of CSU’s offering of a Bachelor of Speech and Language Pathology the library has some great resources for speech pathology in our  speech pathology guide.
