20Q: Clinical Implementation of the NASEM Outcome Measures
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Catherine Palmer, PhD
Text/Transcript
Course: #42367Level: Intermediate1.5 Hours
This course provides practical strategies and clinical protocols for implementing the minimum set of outcome measures recommended by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) to assess adult hearing health interventions. Hearing healthcare professionals will learn how to integrate subjective questionnaires and objective speech-in-noise tests into their clinical workflow, handle scoring, interpret treatment success, and navigate billing.

20Q: Staging Hearing Loss: Closing the Gap Between Diagnosis and Action
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Sarah Sydlowski, AuD, PhD, MBA, Matthew Carlson, MD, MBA
Text/Transcript
Course: #42189Level: Intermediate1.5 Hours
This course examines the rationale and framework for developing a disease staging system for hearing loss, contrasting existing audiometric classification approaches with evidence-based staging models used for chronic conditions such as cancer, chronic kidney disease, and heart failure. Hearing healthcare professionals will gain an understanding of the Hearing Health Collaborative's initiative to establish clinically meaningful staging criteria tied to documented health risks—including depression, cognitive decline, falls, and social isolation—and of the interdisciplinary steps required to advance systemic change in hearing loss identification and treatment utilization.

20Q: Hearing Loss and Listening-Related Fatigue: Clinical Assessment
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Benjamin W. Y. Hornsby, PhD
Text/Transcript
Course: #42174Level: Intermediate2 Hours
This article examines the development, validation, and clinical application of the Vanderbilt Fatigue Scales (VFS), a suite of measurement tools designed to assess listening-related fatigue in adults and children with hearing loss, including adult scales (VFS-A-40 and VFS-A-10) and pediatric scales (VFS-C, VFS-P, and VFS-T). Hearing healthcare professionals will gain practical knowledge of how to administer, score, and interpret VFS results using qualitative and quantitative cut-points, apply findings to guide patient counseling, and identify evidence-informed intervention strategies to reduce listening-related fatigue.

20Q: Something About Mead
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Marshall Chasin, AuD
Text/Transcript
Course: #41720Level: Intermediate2.5 Hours
This course provides a comprehensive retrospective of the technical innovations and clinical contributions made by Mead Killion to the field of Audiology, ranging from transducer design to Speech-in-Noise testing. It highlights the development of the K-AMP, insert earphones, and the QuickSIN, and illustrates how these advancements continue to shape modern hearing healthcare practice.

How Signia’s Research Approach Fits into Evidence-Based Practice Decision-Making
Signia CEU courses
Presented by Brian Taylor, AuD, Niels Søgaard Jensen, MSc
Text/Transcript
Course: #41743Level: Intermediate2 Hours
In an era where evidence-based decision-making is essential to success in the clinic, hearing care professionals need more than marketing claims - they need proof. The objective of this article is twofold. First, it provides a framework for how one hearing aid manufacturer conducts its product research and how this framework contributes to more effective hearing aid selection and fitting decisions in the clinic. Second, the article presents a comprehensive synthesis of peer-reviewed studies, clinical trials, and real-world data evaluating the efficacy and effectiveness of Signia’s Integrated Xperience (IX) hearing aid platform and how these studies fit into this framework.

20Q: Adopting Tinnitus Stepped-Care as Standard Practice
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by James A. Henry, PhD
Text/Transcript
Course: #41622Level: Intermediate2 Hours
Audiologists are often the primary providers of clinical services for tinnitus, which include evaluation, counseling, sound therapy, and other treatments. This article reviews Tinnitus Stepped-Care, which offers a framework for providing tinnitus services in a consistent and efficient manner while allowing audiologists to conduct the procedures they prefer.

20Q: Clinical Audiologic Testing—80 Years of Progress?
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by James W. Hall III, PhD
Text/Transcript
Course: #41625Level: Intermediate1.5 Hours
A historical perspective on the evolution of the clinical audiologic test battery, beginning with its origins from World War II and highlighting key developments along the way. It includes rationale for a modern, patient-specific approach that incorporates objective tests and speech-in-noise measures, challenging the longstanding reliance on the traditional simple air-bone-speech test battery.

20Q: Over-the-Counter Hearing Aids and Service Delivery Models—What We Know, and What Remains Unclear
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Vinaya Manchaiah, AuD, MBA, PhD
Text/Transcript
Course: #41485Level: Intermediate1.5 Hours
This course explores the emerging landscape of Over-the-Counter (OTC) hearing aids and Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) hearing care models, highlighting their key differences from traditional devices and service delivery. Current research on the uptake, quality, and consumer satisfaction with OTC devices and how they have impacted audiologic practice and traditional hearing aid dispensing are discussed.

20Q: Meaningful Outcome Measures for Hearing Interventions in Adults
AudiologyOnline CEU courses
Presented by Larry E. Humes, PhD
Text/Transcript
Course: #41315Level: Intermediate1.5 Hours
The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) recently published a report on meaningful outcome measures for hearing interventions in adults. This course describes the core outcome domains identified in the report and the associated outcome measures recommended for use by both clinicians and researchers to assess the effectiveness of hearing interventions.

Beyond Speech Intelligibility: Expanding the Clinician’s Role in Assessing the Individual’s Auditory Ecology
Signia CEU courses
Presented by Brian Taylor, AuD
Text/Transcript
Course: #41222Level: Intermediate1.5 Hours
Although hearing aid signal processing strategies are largely designed to optimize speech intelligibility for their wearers, other objectives such as listening comfort, listening to music, and enjoying the sounds of nature might be highly important for some. The term, auditory ecology, is used to describe a listener’s varied acoustic environments, the listening tasks they perform within them, and how important those tasks are in daily life. This article provides insights into how an individual’s auditory ecology can be assessed more broadly and how hearing aid selection decisions should be considered beyond improving the speech intelligibility of the wearer.
