Graduate Success Stories

After a recent layoff, I started looking for a career that would allow me to work with people and provide a needed service that impacts people’s quality of life. A relative suggested I look into a career in Hearing Aid Dispensing.

There’s a high demand for licensed Hearing Aid Dispensers. After researching many educational programs, I chose the Hearing Aid Academy.

The on-line comprehensive courses are divided into manageable short videos and texts that allowed for the flexibility I needed.

​I am now working in a two-office Hearing Instrument Dispensing business in the Dallas area. I recommend getting your education at the Hearing Aid Academy.

I had always wanted to be in a profession where I felt as if I made a difference. I wanted to help others and feel that I was spending my life contributing to the benefit of the community and not taking from it.

That’s when I heard about the Hearing Aid Academy. Well, needless to say, I am thrilled to tell you that I have just passed my state examination and am working full time in my own business as a licensed, professional hearing health care professional.

I wanted to share my excitement and satisfaction and to thank everyone at the Academy for always being there when I needed a helping word or a helping hand.

For the chance to be a positive influence in my community, for the opportunity to learn exactly what I needed to know and understand to become a licensed specialist, and for the many times when I received special guidance and support from my instructors and the Academy staff, I say sincerely, “Thanks!”

I have been in a very rewarding career for the past 18 months thanks to the Hearing Aid Academy! I came out of retirement ,looking for something meaningful to do in Health Care. When I found the Hearing Aid Academy, I could not believe my good fortune. No where else was offering any sort of organized coursework to train for the written and practical exams here in Texas. In 6 short months I was able to apply myself and graduated in time to pass the Texas ILE written exam and breezed through the practical exam, passing BOTH the first try! Having a background in healthcare, I was impressed with the information that I learned but more so the easy to follow learning design of the program. I landed my first position in 45 days after getting my license and am paid well to help people hear better! If your looking for a new career, look no further.

I was a student at the Hearing Aid Academy. It was a great experience. I highly recommend them. The lectures are really amazing and go in great details about all the topics to help you not just pass the licensing exam, but to really become the best professional. The BPP-Best Practice Protocol taught by the Hearing Aid Academy is using the highest standards of care to really provide the best outcomes for the patient. The practical experience is also very extensive. It’s completely hands on in many different settings. The training really is amazing since it prepares you for your new career.

I just took and passed my practicum and can’t help but thank you for the education that you have provided through the Hearing Aid Academy, God bless in all your endeavors!

I was skeptical at the beginning, because I had never gone through an online training before, however I must say I am quite impressed with the depth of information I was able to receive through the Hearing Aid Academy program. The education I received from the Hearing Aid Academy was everything they promised it to be and more. I highly recommend this program to anyone who is looking to get licensed as a hearing aid specialist.

The Hearing Aid Academy is everything and more than what is advertised. The Academy is not just learning what is necessary to pass your state test but it is the path to obtaining a complete education about the science of hearing and the intricacies of hearing aids. I have a business finance background but wished to change my life’s path and sincerely help people with their hearing. I personally had no previous hearing experience or science experience for that matter. Yes, I was completely lost at first, but the required information is available from the Hearing Aid Academy and I am completely satisfied with the pace and structure of the education. Then to top it off, the Hearing Aid Academy was able to refer me to a Board Certified, 20 year experienced, hearing aid specialist for additionalpractical training. I am now employed in the industry with a great career job after only 8 months from beginning my education. Thank you Dennis and Dave for literally assisting me in changing my life.

Thanks for sending me Mr. Troy Birmingham. Troy worked with me on his practical for maybe 6 months. He was a sharp student. He had no formal training in our science before attending your academy. He was well instructed and could apply that knowledge with my hands on. He took to all my instruction well. He has currently taken a position with Livingston Hearing in Texas where he will be closer to his home in Louisiana. Thank you for sending me such a likable , interested,dedicated student.

I would like to fully appreciate the effort done by Mr Dennis Gunn and his team of HAA in making an excellent, complete, current and comprehensive online HIS program which has not only given me confidence to go for any State Licensing Exam written and practical but also has given me an insight of responsibilities as a Hearing Healthcare Professional to help the hearing impaired individuals in the community to improve their communication skills by using a proper hearing instrument.

My name is Desiree Stevens. I completed the Hearing Aid Academy course before taking the licensure exam to become a hearing instrument specialist. The most exciting part of it all is I passed my practical and written exam the first time around! I am now licensed to dispense and fit hearing aids in the state of Oklahoma! I truly believe that without this course and my amazing support system I would not have succeeded as quickly as I did. Dennis Gunn does a great job explaining the material in the videos provided through the course. It was always very helpful for me to read the suggested reading material, and then have someone go through and explain it verbally. This course does just that!
