The Norwegian Speech and Language Pathologist Association is a professional association for speech therapists with 76 years of experience in organizational work. The association aims to safeguard the interests of speech therapists and promote the development of the profession. The members' needs are met through various services, including courses and training, as well as access to a separate journal, Norwegian Journal of Speech and Language Therapy (NTL), which is independent of the central government.
The association is also a member of Fagpressen and offers tools to help users find speech therapists based on name and county. The Norwegian Association of Speech and Language Pathologists emphasizes professional ethical guidelines and has developed a strategic action plan to strengthen the profession. The members benefit from benefits such as salary and collective agreements as well as insurance, which contributes to a safer working day for speech therapists.
