Meet us in St Louis! The American Academy of Audiology (AAA) 2020 Convention + HearTECH Expo will be held in St Louis on March 30-April 2, 2022 and here is Hearing Review‘s Guide to the show. As the first in-person AAA convention in two years due to the pandemic, this year’s convention returns to featuring all the excellent events AAA has become widely known for: great featured sessions, grand rounds, and educational seminars; engaging receptions, the honors dinner, and Foundation Happy Hour, as well as a Friday night event at the Anheuser Busch Biergarten; and many opportunities to network with old friends and colleagues, as well as to meet new important contacts for furthering your professional journey. You can also visit the new HearTECH Expo where you can meet up with industry representatives, partake in featured education, and enjoy fun activities.

Below is an abbreviated schedule taken from the AAA website in mid-February, followed by just a few of the new products and services being featured in the HearTECH Expo at the America’s Center convention hall (Halls 3-5). Please note that the events, times, and venues may change, so be sure to check the updated schedule on the AAA website (www.audiology.org) and final program prior to making your plans. Some special events require advanced registration and/or an extra fee ($). A full list of exhibitors is provided on page 53 of the accompanying guide (below link) in PDF format.
