Audioprothesic techniques
Class: L/SNT3 - Technical health professions
As we develop into an increasingly aging society problems related to hearing have become more evident and hearing aids have solved the problem. If you are interested in the supply, adaptation, and control of prosthetic devices this course will allow you to learn the basic knowledge related to hearing and prostheses as well as how to apply this (through an important practical approach) using modern technology. Understanding auditory rehabilitation and using appropriate testing and equipment to verify the effectiveness of hearing aid devices you will also deal with transversal topics of psychology, informatics, and management. With this course you will be able to enter the workforce, mainly in private structures, acting independently with a doctor's prescription.
