We are mighty proud to see your dedication and vision recognized in this way. Your leadership has always inspired us to reach further and dream bigger. This award is such a well-deserved tribute to the impact you’ve made. 🏆

Congratulations to Asst. Prof. Mike Valdez of UP CAMP for being named the 2025 PRC Outstanding Professional for Speech-Language Pathology! 🏆🗣️

Through his contributions in shaping SLP education, including leading trailblazing revisions to the UP undergraduate and master’s degree programs in SLP, he has opened new pathways for Filipino SLPs to specialize and advance their practice. 📚 🎓

Beyond the classroom, he champions public service through initiatives like “Usap Tayo!”, a free online speech and language screening platform born during the pandemic, now integrated into student training. His work strengthens both community access to care and the next generation of SLPs. 🇵🇭💡

With his contributions in education, service, research, and policy, Asst. Prof. Valdez continues to elevate the profession and expand opportunities for Filipinos with communication needs. ✨👏
