IASLT CPD email notifications are sent from our event management system to the email address you used to register for an event. Certain email providers have very sensitive spam filters, your IASLT event notifications may therefore  land in your SPAM folder.  While we do our utmost to make sure that you receive all notifications, we advise you to check your spam folder before contacting us, if you notice that you have not received an anticipated email notification about an upcoming event that you have registered for.

You will be sent an email with the details on how to attend the event within a few days of the event.

Querys regarding payments

  • There may be several different fees for the same live event. Prices vary depending on a number of criteria that will be listed on the event webpage. For instance, prices may be lower for IASLT members than non-members and prices may be reduced further for an IASLT member who is also a member of a Special Interest Group (SIG), that is co-hosting a CPD event with IASLT.
  • Some events are funded by the National HSCPs Office, H.S.E. and may be available at a reduced price to SLTs who are working in the Public Health Service.  
  • We also advertise some free events for Health Professionals hosted by the National HSCPs Office, H.S.E. These events are accessed through links on the event page which are provided to us by the NHSCP Office.
  • When you register for an event that doesn't require approval, you are brought straight  to the Stripe payment page and should make payment immediately.
  • Once you have registered for an event, that event will appear in the "My Events" section of your Member or User Dashboard (You can log in to your account on the top right corner of the  IASLT.ie Home page)
    If you forget or postpone payment,  please use the"Pay Now" button immediately which  appears on the event listing in  the  "My Events" section of  your Member or User dashboard.
  • When you apply to attend an event that requires an expression of interest, if your application is approved you will receive a confirmation email with a payment link and instructions on how to make your payment.
