No. A Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) usually has an undergraduate degree in psychology, sociology or biology. Then they take a Master’s degree in speech/language pathology. The same is true for Audiologists; their Master’s degree is in Audiology. There’s another exam required by the Canadian Audiology and Speech/Language Pathology Association before they are allowed to see patients.
