(McLean, VA) - For the first time ever, the American Board of Audiology waived the $75 application fee for audiologists applying for Board Certification in Audiology between March 1 and July 4, 2002. This will give you a $75 reduction in total fees required for board certification.
In addition, for the first time the ABA will take applications for board certification at the Academy convention. This is only one of many ways the board has worked to institute improved procedures, decrease the amount of paperwork associated with application and renewal of certification, and to reduce the financial burden. Stop by the ABA booth at the convention for answers to your questions about certification and for applications.
A commitment to professional standards, ethical practices, and continued professional development, Board Certification in Audiology is a credentialing program administered by audiologists for audiologists administered by the American Board of Audiology (ABA.) Benefits accrue to both the audiologist and the consumer through recognition of the commitment to continued competency in contemporary audiologic practices.
