The 2011 Annual Conference of the Texas Academy of Audiology brought together the largest attendance in the history of the Academy. Attendees were rewarded with a broad and strong program that earned many positive comments about the high-caliber speakers.
During the business meeting, four new members of the TAA Board were elected and members heard a review of the Texas Academy's busy legislative year in 2011, including new changes in the licensing act. In the end, attendees were not only able to earn continuing education units (11 clock hours, including Tier 1 hours and Ethics training), but were also able to re-fuel their enthusiasm for their audiology practices!
In addition, the conference afforded time for networking with 54 exhibitors representing 26 companies and 57 students. The student poster forum had the largest number of student posters ever submitted and provided an opportunity for students to present their research. First place awards were given to Jody Pogue and Denise Romine from the University of North Texas and a third place award was given to Elizabeth Parks from the University of Texas at Dallas.
