Professional Training

The Auditory-Verbal Center offers graduate students and practicing professionals an opportunity to gain university credit and clinical clock hours toward graduation or Auditory-Verbal Certification.

The A-V Center offers one-week and semester long training opportunities. The practicum format varies depending on the needs of the individual. Goals and guidelines will include a combination of the following activities:

Observation: Observations will include children at various stages of Auditory-Verbal development, including children utilizing both hearing aids and cochlear implants, within a variety of therapy activities and teaching styles.

A-V Lessons: Participants will discuss with a certified auditory-verbal therapist individual therapy plans and format. Students may plan, write and implement activities for pre-determined sessions, which are videotaped and used as a resource for critiquing.

Expert Consultations: Participants may meet and/or observe a certified Audiologist or Cochlear Implant Audiologist for relevant evaluation and consultation techniques.

Parent Insight: Participants may meet with the parent and graduates of AVC’s auditory-verbal program to discuss issues surrounding program results, parenting, educational resources, and other pertinent issues for deaf or hard of hearing children.

Participation: Participants are encouraged to participate in every aspect of an auditory-verbal therapist’s job while at the Center, which includes but is not limited to parent training, round table clinical discussions, evaluations, the scoring of test instruments, and report writing.
