Kidding aside, at AudiologyOnline every day is course formats day. Our courses are offered in a variety of formats to meet your learning and lifestyle needs.

20Q: OAEs - A Sound Clinical Tool 

This new text course by Dr. Sumit Dhar of Northwestern University covers the history of OAEs and provides a good high-level overview of their clinical uses. Like all 20Q with Gus Mueller articles, it features an engaging Q & A format. Stay tuned for the August 20Q where Dr. Dhar and Dr. Mueller will dig a little deeper into the clinical details of this great clinical tool.

Noise-induced Hearing Loss - July Live Webinars

Our live webinars in July are part of the 7th annual AudiologyOnline Noise-Induced Hearing Loss webinar series organized by Guest Editor Dr. Brian Fligor. See the full schedule and register here

Blast Exposure - Recorded Webinars

The June live webinar series featured experts from the Hearing Center of Excellence, Department of Defense and Veterans Administration discussing audiological assessment and treatment considerations for patients who have been exposed to blasts. The series is now available as recorded webinars that you can view at your convenience.

Vanderbilt Hearing Aid Hands-On Workshop

If you fit hearing aids, consider attending this in-person workshop at Vanderbilt University that will provide you with hands-on experience with the latest fitting techniques. It is presented by two of the top leading experts in our field - Todd Ricketts and Gus Mueller. There is no better way to get an unbiased, evidence-based and practical education on modern hearing aid technology to deliver better outcomes for your patients. That was definitely my experience when I attended the workshop many years ago.  I also picked up a few dance steps from the locals at Tootsie’s in Nashville where Dr. Mueller took us all after a full day of learning, but that story is for another day.

Thank you!

I wish you a happy and healthy summer! We are beginning to plan our courses for 2015, and I’d love to hear from you. Please feel free to contact me at any time at editor@audiologyonline.com with your questions, comments and suggestions.

As always, thank you for reading.

Cheers,

Carolyn
