I am pleased to share the success of our online Pediatric Audiology Specialty Certification (PASC) exam structure as well as updates to the ABA certificate programs. Welcome new certification and certificate recipients! The ABA Board is focused on evaluating opportunities to improve existing options as well as the possibility of expanding to new areas in the coming year.
We also have been working closely with the Student Academy of Audiology (SAA) Board to optimize opportunities for rising professionals to demonstrate their commitment to the highest level of audiology practice by becoming ABA Certified soon after graduation. I am inspired by the amazing leadership and optimism reflected in our SAA leaders. Their level of commitment and excitement is a great indication that the future of audiology is in great hands!
Best Wishes,
