Abstract
Students with auditory disabilities often rely on hearing aids, cochlear implants, hearing assistance technology (e.g., assistive listening devices), or a combination thereof to access spoken language. Following the fitting of amplification, a management plan must be put in place to ensure that predetermined technology goals are consistently met. This plan addresses how and when the instruments will be used; appropriate orientation and training for all stakeholders; the process for validating the benefits and limitations of technology; and the implementation of a program for monitoring efficacy. Educational audiologists have a statutory responsibility to ensure that a technology management plan is implemented in the child's school environment.
