Welcome to Lesson 1: The Peripheral Auditory System. In this lesson, we will discuss the outer, middle, and inner ear!

As a human being, the sense of hearing is an important one and the foundation for our ability to communicate with others.  As a hearing instrument specialist, you are not just selling hearing aids.  You are educating patient's about their hearing health and helping them to improve their quality-of-life by overcoming the damage that they have sustained to the auditory system.

Your patient's will ask you many questions about their hearing and ask you questions like...

Do I have "nerve deafness"?     and      Why does age-related hearing loss begin in the high frequencies?

This course will help you to answer those questions:-)
