摘要
本研究旨在探討不同個人背景因素之語言治療師對繼續教育需求與專業成長的差異性及其關係，本研究採用自編製「語言治療師繼續教育需求與專業成長調查問卷」進行問卷調查，選定登記為台灣聽力語言學會會員之語言治療師為研究對象。共計回收159份有效樣本，回收率為73.95％，問卷施測時間為99年1月10日。
本研究結果發現如下：
1.語言治療師之主要服務場域以醫院為多，佔83.0％。
2.語言治療師近6個月參與研習課程為1-3次；費用以全部自費者為主，佔半數以上（65.4％）。
3.語言治療師參與繼續教育需求類型依序為「語言專業課程研習會」、「語言治療專題、個案演講討論會」及「證照考試課程研習」。
4.語言治療師繼續教育需求分為「參與動機」、「內容需求」、「學習方式」，其中整體分數以參與「學習方式」情形最高，其次為「參與動機」，「內容需求」最低。
5.語言治療師專業成長分為「一般行政能力」、「專業知能」、「專業承諾」，發現整體分數以語言治療師「專業承諾」平均數最高，其次為「專業知能」，最低為「一般行政能力」。
6.語言治療師繼續教育需求會因年齡、工作年資不同而有顯著差異。
7.語言治療師專業成長會因年齡、工作年資不同而有顯著差異。
8.語言治療師繼續教育需求與專業成長間屬於中度相關。
本研究之建議如下：
1.辦理研習課程之相關機構可多舉辦行政類研習，使語言治療師能有效運用行政資源於專業工作上。
2.辦理研習課程之相關機構可多採用及運用網路進修方式以節省研習成本及提高研習效益。
3.應重視不同工作年資的語言治療師繼續教育需求，將研習課程進行分級以持續提升語言治療師之專業成長。
