Of the 25 exam candidates who took the Spring 2025 PASC Exam in May, 22 of the 25 passed the exam and are now Board Certified in Pediatric Audiology® (BC-PA). The pass rate for those taking the exam for the first time was 86.9 percent and we have added board-certified pediatric audiologists for across the US. In the words of Ali Hyland, AuD, a pediatric audiologist at Comer Children’s Hospital–The University of Chicago Medicine:
“Earning board certification in pediatric audiology represents a significant milestone in my professional journey, affirming my advanced knowledge, clinical expertise, and commitment to excellence in the diagnosing and treatment of hearing loss in children This distinction not only strengthens my foundation in evidence-based pediatric assessment and intervention, but also enhances my ability to collaborate effectively with families, educators, and healthcare teams.”
