yes, but only in certain states - MO, CA, TX for sure... I don't know about other states. but yes, you can - you may just want to get a job as an OT or PT assistant if necessary. LA- requires you have 100 direct clinical hours from an accredited university prior to becoming a Provisional SLP-A...then you need to acquire 125 hours on the job to drop the Provisonal part.
