With recent advancements in technology, patients may experience issues bringing hearing aids into workspaces with security measures in place. Collaboration with the intelligence community and industry has resulted in solutions for this patient population, and the solution as well as ongoing issues are discussed.

With the introduction of Over the Counter (OTC) hearing aids, it is important to investigate wearer satisfaction with the devices. This article examines outcome measures for wearers of a self-fitted OTC hearing aid design.

Moderated by Dr. Susan Scollie, this course brings together several experts from leading companies in hearing care as part of the 2025 AudiologyOnline Industry Innovations Summit. The theme is Hearing Products for Challenging Cases. A wide arrange of products and services are discussed along with their supporting evidence. Insight into trends and changes in the hearing care market is also provided in this lively roundtable forum that includes a distinguished panel of presenters from Audioscan, CaptionCall, CareCredit, ReSound, Sennheiser, Signia, and Starkey.

This course examines the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in advancing hearing aid technology, highlighting how AI enhances sound processing, adapts to user preferences, and enables real-time adjustments to improve listening experiences in diverse environments. The discussion will cover AI’s ability to personalize users’ listening experiences through predictive algorithms and continuous learning from user feedback.

Sound enhancement and tinnitus masking are cornerstones of the clinical management of chronic bothersome subjective tinnitus. This course reviews the subtle but effective changes to hearing aid programming when hearing aids are fitted for the purpose of managing tinnitus symptoms, including masking sounds and soft-sound enhancement.

This course discusses how clinicians can connect pediatric devices, specifically Phonak, Oticon, Cochlear, Med-El, and Advanced Bionics, to popular video game systems. This course focuses on why direct streaming is important to gaming for those with hearing loss.

This course reviews the practical issues regarding the use of self-report inventories in the hearing aid selection and fitting process, and how these inventories can be implemented into routine practice. Specific inventories are provided and explained, with case studies to illustrate how the findings impact counseling and the overall treatment plan.

Audiologists are responsible for ensuring optimal amplification outcomes for their patients. Often the primary goal is to better hear and understand speech. Many factors can affect the output of the hearing aids as measured in the patient’s ear. For this reason, it is critical to verify at initial fitting whether the hearing aids can be programmed to rehabilitate the hearing loss and provide speech audibility. This course provides practical information to effectively use real-ear verification measures and improve patient outcomes.

The performance of hearing aids in meeting rooms, theaters, and houses of worship is greatly enhanced by assistive technology: hearing loops, FM/Infrared assistive listening devices with neckloops as mandated under Americans with Disabilities law, and, hopefully soon, future public Auracast systems, but only if users have hearing devices that can connect to these systems. This course will cover the basics of telecoils (T-coil programming, verification, and validation), how Auracast figures into this, and a brief overview of how you/your clients can foster future proof hearing access in the community.

This course introduces the student to the basics of artificial intelligence and explains AI’s role in transforming healthcare by emphasizing how it is changing Audiology. It also teaches you how AI powers Precision Medicine and Genomics in ways that will redefine Audiology.
