⭐ What is The BIG EI Event?
The Big EI Event is a free, annual, early intervention event, hosted by SLPs, for SLPs. The BIG EI Event started in 2019 and was hosted over on Instagram by The SLT Scrapbook. It has been hosted every year since then.
The aim of The BIG EI Event is to share new therapy ideas, and to pass on the latest evidence-based practice within early intervention, in a free and accessible way.

Please excuse the video quality. The videos from the event have been downloaded from Instagram (they were initially shared in IGTV), and then uploaded here on YouTube. So although the quality may not be the best, the information is still helpful, so even more therapists can benefit from the knowledge shared during the event.
