On Friday 11 December, 97 Itinerant Teachers of the Deaf representing every state and territory in Australia, virtually spent A Day at the Australian Hearing Hub. This full day workshop provided the ITODs with a chance to learn about the services, research and resources that are available by Australian Hearing Hub member organisations.
The attendees received presentations from a wide variety of experts across all of the Australian Hearing Hub members organisations including Hearing Australia, National Acoustic Laboratories, The Shepherd Centre, RIDBC, Macquarie University Hearing, and Cochlear Limited. There was also presentation from hearing community groups, Hear for You, Hearing Matters Australia, Parents of Deaf Children and Hearing Hub Junior Science Camp.
This event was a collaboration between the Australian Hearing Hub and the RIDBC Renwick Centre and was so warmly received that we are sure we will host a similar event again in the future.
