Course Description: There is unprecedented interest in auditory processing disorders (APD) among audiologists, speech pathologists, and parents of children who are academic underachievers. Differential diagnosis of APD is challenging for many audiologists. Assessment procedures and protocols extend far beyond the audiogram, and treatment strategies are highly varied and must be closely coordinated with other professionals. Furthermore, APD must be differentiated from among a variety of co-exhisting disorders, such as dyslexia, language impairment, and ADHD. This exciting new Workshop provides the clinical audiologist or speech pathologist with a practical and logical multidisciplinary approach for assessment and management of this substantial and under-served clinical population that is based on a foundation of basic and applied science, and used daily by the University of Florida Department of Communicative Disorders and Multidisciplinary Diagnostic and Treatment Program. The Workshop provides the clinician with practical take-home messages, coupled with hands-on experiences and extensive handout materials, in an informal and friendly learning environment. Workshop days begin at 8:00am and conclude at 5:00pm.
