Partnering with Speech Pathology Programs to Empower Graduates with Real-World Experience

Shaping Future Clinicians — Together

At VerbaCare, we believe the future of school-based therapy begins with strong, meaningful partnerships between universities and the professionals doing the work every day. That’s why we collaborate with leading institutions like the California State University system and the University of California system to support the transition from student to professional.

Our Mission: Bridging Education and Practice

We offer a structured and supported pathway for graduating students and Clinical Fellows (CFs) to enter the field with confidence and clarity. Through mentorship, real-world school placements, and access to expert clinicians, we help universities prepare students not just to qualify — but to thrive.

How VerbaCare Supports Universities and Students

  • Transition Pathways for Graduates

    We help students step into school-based roles through supervised practicum and CF placements with real impact.

  • Mentorship from Experienced SLPs

    Every new graduate is paired with a licensed, school-based mentor who provides clinical support, feedback, and encouragement.

  • Employment Opportunities Post-Graduation

    Strong-performing students are often offered full-time roles at VerbaCare — earning 80% of the billing rate with full benefits.

  • University Collaboration

    Our experienced professionals contribute back to university programs through guest lectures, supervision, and ongoing feedback to faculty.

  • Credentialing & Compliance Support

    We streamline onboarding and documentation, ensuring a smooth process for both students and university staff.

Spotlight on CSU East Bay (Hayward)

We currently partner with California State University, East Bay, offering Clinical Fellows:
  • Real-world placements in Northern California public schools

  • Ongoing mentorship from licensed SLPs working in education

  • A guided transition from classroom learning to independent clinical practice

  • A career pathway to join VerbaCare as full-time professionals post-CF

Giving Back to the Field

At VerbaCare, we believe in full-circle mentorship. That’s why our experienced clinicians have the opportunity to contribute directly to university programs through:

  • Clinical supervision of practicum students and CFs
  • Guest speaking and mentorship opportunities
  • Collaborative projects with university faculty and training teams
    This model not only supports student growth — it empowers our professionals to lead, teach, and shape the future of school-based services.

Let’s Partner for Impact

Whether you’re building a school-based practicum program or seeking a trusted CF placement pathway, we’d love to collaborate with your team.
