Speech language pathology requirements to work in Canada

[Rana.Z]

Hi, my sister has a bachelor in speech language pathology from Bulgaria. I know that in Canada they need a master’s degree to be able to work as a speech therapist. My question is what can she work with her bachelor’s degree in Ontario? Can she work as a speech pathology assistant? Does she require any certification? Appreciate the help and directing me to any resources. Thanks.

She needs to be licensed so she cannot work as SLP. She would have to look at requirements as an assistant because she may need a post grad diploma or certificate. Is her English perfect?

She has perfect English. Are you aware of licensing requirements?

Look up SLPA requirements for province she will live in.
