SUMMARY:The Therapeutic Power of Language Masterclass – Advanced Communication Skills for Clinical Practice
DESCRIPTION:For audiology professionals\, clinical excellence isn’t just about technical skill—it’s about how effectively we communicate with patients. The Therapeutic Language Workshop from Human Givens College offers BAA members a powerful opportunity to enhance one of the most underdeveloped yet critical clinical competencies: therapeutic communication. \nBuilt on a practical\, evidence-based psychological framework\, the Human Givens approach focuses on using language to reduce anxiety\, improve understanding\, and support behaviour change—skills that are directly transferable to audiology settings\, from managing patient expectations to improving adherence and outcomes. \nIn an environment where patient experience\, counselling\, and holistic care are increasingly prioritised\, this training enables audiologists to move beyond information delivery—to truly influence\, reassure\, and support patients more effectively in every interaction. \nVenues in London and Bristol. \nMon 13th & Tues 14th July\, in Bristol (Engineer’s House) \nTues 3rd & Wed 4th November\, in central London (Broadway House) \nLength 2 days (9:30am – 4:00pm) \nTutor: Dr Gareth Hughes \nAccredited CPD Certificate: 12 hours \nPrice: £440 per person \nIncludes lunch\, refreshments and course notes \nBook your place > https://www.humangivens.com/college/therapeutic-language-workshop/

SUMMARY:Paediatric Tinnitus in Practice Day
DESCRIPTION:Paediatric Tinnitus in Practice\n– Assessment\, management and practical strategies for clinicians \nThursday 30th April \nBrockholes Nature Reserve\,\nPreston\,\nLancashire\nPR5 0AG \nJoin us for a practical\, clinically focused education day exploring how to assess and support children and young people who experience tinnitus. \nSupporting children with tinnitus in everyday clinical practice \nThis education day focuses on the assessment and management of tinnitus in children and young people\, with a strong emphasis on practical\, transferable skills that can be applied confidently in clinic. \nIt is estimated that 1 in 30 children experience tinnitus that is troublesome.

A PO number is required if an invoice is needed. Places are confirmed once payment has been received. \nVenue\nBrockholes Nature Reserve\, Preston\, Lancashire PR5 0AG \nLocated just off Junction 31 of the M6\nFree parking for delegates\nLunch and refreshments provided \nRegistration\nTo register\,please email: info@audiologyinskipton.co.uk \nPlease include your name\, place of work\, contact telephone number\, address\, and email.
