Presenter(s): Pamela E Souza, PhD, CCC-A

Summary: According to recent research, an individual's success with using a hearing aid is connected to their cognitive ability. This course reviews the evidence and explains how to apply it to clinical decision-making to improve outcomes for each individual patient.
Presenter(s): Michelle Leigh Arnold, AuD, CCC-A; Debra Dobbs, PhD
Credit(s): PDHs: 0.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.05
Summary: Older adults must make important decisions about their end-of-life care, and those with hearing and other communication disorders need special accommodations to participate in these important decisions to the fullest extent possible. This session discusses the communication needs of patients in the final stages of life, including the use of various hearing technologies, such as hearing aids, personal sound amplifiers, and pocket talkers. The presenters discuss tools to facilitate conversations among patients, family members, and caregivers.
Presenter(s): Samira B Anderson, PhD, CCC-A
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: The field of audiology focuses mostly on the peripheral auditory system-in both diagnosis and management-but other factors (e.g., "hidden hearing loss" and/or reduced cognitive ability) may play a role in an individual's ability to communicate in diverse environments. This session discusses how audiologists can incorporate evoked potential testing into the assessment battery to obtain a more comprehensive picture of auditory function.
Presenter(s): Victoria A Sanchez, AuD, PhD, CCC-A, F-AAA; Ann Clock Eddins, PhD, MBA, CCC-A, FAAA
Credit(s): PDHs: 0.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.05
Summary: Emerging treatment approaches for age-related hearing loss include alternative interventions aimed at ameliorating symptoms and slowing down or even preventing hearing loss, in contrast with current treatment approaches, which focus primarily on amplification and communication strategies. This session will explore up-and-coming approaches, such as pre-clinical investigation of hormones (e.g., Aldosterone) correlated with auditory function; medicinal-related interventions; and challenges to timelines to bring new treatments to market.
Presenter(s): Elizabeth Adams Costa, PhD
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: Published research indicates that outcomes in children with hearing loss are generally lower than their hearing counterparts. Given the cascading effects auditory deprivation and language delays may cause in children, providing differential diagnoses can present a challenge. This course identifies commonly occurring comorbid presentations in children with hearing loss and describes the process of making differential diagnoses.
Presenter(s): Amy L. Donaldson, PhD, CCC-SLP; endever* corbin,
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This session discusses communicative choice and agency for students on the autism spectrum. The speakers address these topics within a framework of neurodiversity and anti-ableism, presenting recommendations from the autistic community to support professionals in facilitating communication access for all children, including speech and augmentative and alternative communication.
Presenter(s): Kyomi Dana Gregory-Martin, PhD, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 1.0, ASHA CEUs*: 0.1
Summary: This session discusses curriculum-based literacy demands and the interests of adolescents who are from varying culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. The speaker shares actionable steps to promote students' access and engagement in literacy by developing an intervention plan that promotes a culturally and linguistically supportive setting.
Presenter(s): Megan-Brette Hamilton, PhD, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 0.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.05
Summary: Many clinicians may feel they lack the time, skills, or competence to effectively address diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI); it might feel like one more thing on an already-long list of considerations and requirements. But if we focus on our passion for working with people and change our perspective about providing culturally responsive services, then it's not more work, it is the work. This course discusses the value of addressing DEI as part of audiology and SLP services and provides practical ideas for doing so.
Presenter(s): Samantha C Washington, EdD, CCC-SLP
Credit(s): PDHs: 0.5, ASHA CEUs*: 0.05
Summary: Many of the static assessments administered by speech-language pathologists have some degree of cultural assumptions and are often limited in representing diverse groups. This course provides strategies to assess standardized assessments' cultural and linguistic sensitivity and provides guidance for the use of alternative assessment options.
Presenter(s): Ruchi Kapila, MS, CCC-SLP; Bobbi Susanne Adams Brown, MA, CCC-SLP; Rachel Rosalsky Dorsey, MS, CCC-SLP

Summary: Neurodivergent SLPs (including those with dyslexia, ADHD, anxiety, autism, etc.) have unique insights and expertise, making them invaluable assets for fostering client-centered care within speech-language pathology practice. In this session, three neurodivergent SLPs who started their own private practices due to lack of supportive and accessible options discuss employment and supervision barriers. They share systemic and individualistic shifts to support neurodivergent SLPs.
