CEU Courses

This course will provide an overview of an exciting new aural rehabilitation tool from Cochlear Americas. The tool provides a self-guided, personalized way for cochlear implant recipients to practice listening in real-world situations and get the support and knowledge they need to hear their best.

The Cochlear Case Studies series is designed to provide professionals with a deeper knowledge and insight about cochlear implants through the use of case studies. In this session, we will hear from Elizabeth Preston, AuD who will share a case and provide tips for encouraging consistent device use.

This course introduces clinicians to our cochlear implant sound processor portfolio, highlighting the features and benefits that empower patients to partner with clinicians for care where and when the need arises. Learn about the role that our product innovation plays in driving performance outcomes and satisfaction.

An increasing number of CI recipients are choosing to wear a hearing aid on the contralateral ear, resulting in a growing body of research that demonstrates bimodal benefit. We will discuss the recent literature, our latest technological innovations and present case studies with hands-on practical demonstrations.

The Cochlear Provider Network (CPN) expands the services of dispensing audiology/ENT practices to include cochlear implants. Through successful partnerships you can become part of a medical network that helps more people achieve optimal hearing performance.

Patients implanted with the Nucleus® 22 cochlear implant can now benefit from all the innovation available in the Cochlear™ Nucleus® 7 Sound Processor! This course will refresh your legacy programming skills to support Cochlear’s earliest implant recipients when they upgrade to improved sound quality and the ability to stream directly from compatible iPhone and Android devices.

This course focuses on the methodology and findings from a recent International systematic review and consensus process, establishing a standard of care for the treatment of adult patients with unilateral cochlear implant for bilateral severe, profound, or moderate sloping to profound sensorineural hearing loss. It also includes a review of "Terry Zwolan et al Development of a 60/60 Guideline for Referring Adults for a Traditional Cochlear Implant Candidacy Evaluation. Otology & Neurotology: April 20, 2020."

In Part 3 of our virtual workshop, we will discuss how product launches impact clinic productivity. We will introduce new products and review the services we provide to reduce stress on clinics.

In Part 2 of our virtual workshop, we will review the role of fitting software in supporting clinicians and ensuring consistency in outcomes. We will discuss several new tools and resources clinicians will have available to support their cochlear implant recipients now and into the future.

Cochlear implant clinics have been fitting recipients for over 35 years and Cochlear has over 450,000 recipients globally. This course will review the data that could help address the stress points that have been identified as the medical landscape has changed in recent years.
