Studies in speech-language therapy are offered both in Cyprus and abroad. It is extremely important that the programme of study is recognised by the competent academic and professional bodies in the country of study, such as to enable the graduate to exercise the profession after completing his/her studies. In Cyprus, the competent body for the recognition of degrees is the Cyprus Council for the Recognition of Higher Education Qualifications (KYSATS, info@kysats.ac.cy, http://www.kysats.ac.cy/)
