SALT is a language sampling tool developed by Dr. Jon Miller and used by Speech and Language Pathologists.

SALT can help:

• Determine the existence of a handicapping condition in expressive language production
• Determine program intervention strategies
• Monitor student progress in language production.

 SALT can also assist in the identification of:

• Utterance formulation problems
• Word finding problems
• Rate problems
• Pragmatic or discourse problems
• Semantic or reference deficits
• Delayed development

 CESA #9 provides SALT transcription services to Speech and Language Pathologists who provide an audio tape or digital recording in narrative or conversation form. The cost of this service is $50.00 per tape for CESA #9 school districts, (either narration or conversation) plus postage. Schools located outside of CESA #9, will be charged $60.00 per tape plus postage. If faxing the transcript is requested, there will be an additional charge of $5.00.
CESA #9 will guarantee a turn-around time of no more than 3 weeks.
