A diverse professional workforce has been shown to add additional perspectives, promote growth in a profession, and improve access to and quality of care. Recruiting and retaining diverse students is an essential part of creating a more diverse workforce and supportive academic and clinical learning environments are essential to these efforts. This session will introduce original research on supporting sexual and gender minority (SGM) audiology students alongside best practices suggested in other fields. Guided group discussions will be used to identify strategies for implementing these practices in audiology programs and clinical placements to support students.

Learning Outcomes: 

1. Describe current clinical and didactic outcomes for audiology students, including how they vary across demographic groups.
2. Apply knowledge from other disciplines and participants’ own experiences to support diverse students in their environment.
3. Analyze clinical and classroom situations that present opportunities for bystander intervention and demonstrate ways to support students in these situations.
