Join your colleagues from across the region as the Kentucky Academy of Audiology returns to Lexington KY for our 2022 Annual Meeting at the Hilton Downtown. After an exciting year that included the passage of House Bill 95 and KAA successfully securing the removal of the requirement for audiologists to hold a separate dispensing license we look forward to seeing everyone in-person for our annual meeting. Conference organizers will apply for .15 CEUs for this activity.
