Several pre-conference course opportunities are offered between 8:00am and noon on Friday, November 12th. Registration opens at 10:00am, and Dr. Brad Stach will give the Keynote Address at 1:00pm on Friday. Our fun and relaxing Opening Night Reception from 7:00pm - 9:00pm Friday evening will be an opportunity to meet and greet the speakers, lobbyist, legislator and your colleagues, participate in a silent auction, and view student poster session entries.
This year's conference will offer 10+ hours of continuing education for attendees.
We have an incredible slate of speakers this year, including AAA 2003 President Dr. Brad Stach, Dr. Ruth Bentler on hearing aid technology and Dr. Richard Danielson on hearing conservation. Other speakers offer a wide variety of topics, including auditory processing, tinnitus, hearing aid fitting strategies, private practice, 3D animation of human hearing, and the new model licensure statute for audiology. There will also be professional updates by our lobbyist, consultant and state legislator.
Looking forward to seeing you all in November!
