Topic: Become a Hearing Aid Specialist

  • Are there requirements for taking the Final Exam?

    The Final Exam must be taken “closed book” without the active use of the course or study materials. Students have 120 minutes to complete the 80-question exam. The exam is proctored online in the e-Learning Portal with AI-Assist. Suspicious behavior during the exam will be investigated. Students must meet the following technical specifications:

      • Use Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome browsers
      • Allow access to webcam and microphone
      • Show photo ID
      • Be in a room free from disturbances
  • Do I need on-job training to enroll as a student in this course?

    The course is built to complement practical, hands-on training. We strongly recommend enrolling while actively working as an apprentice or trainee to maximize learning and accelerate your path to professional readiness. There are a few ways to find an apprenticeship. Learn more here.

     

  • Does IHS have a training program they recommend?

    We recommend the Distance Learning for Professionals in Hearing Health Sciences Course. This course is built to complement practical hands-on training and offers many benefits including a companion trainer manual and trainer toolbox for your trainer.

     

  • Does IHS have resources to prepare for the International Licensing Examination for Hearing Healthcare Professionals (ILE)?

    ILE Test Prep is the only official test preparation platform for the ILE. It’s designed as a study companion for students to gain familiarity with the ILE, easing anxiety and helping identify weak points for more efficient studying.

     

  • How can I find a mentor or trainer?

    IHS has a few resources to help you search. You can find job postings on the Career Center for apprenticeships or trainees in your desired area. We also have a network of Affiliate Chapters to help you connect with hearing healthcare professionals in your region. You can also use our Find a Provider Directory to locate clinicians in your area to contact for potential opportunities.
