Our mission

The ADA is dedicated to leadership in advancing practitioner excellence, high ethical standards, professional autonomy, hearing and balance care technology, and sound business practices in the provision of quality audiological care.

Who we are

The Academy of Doctors of Audiology, founded in 1977 as the Academy of Dispensing Audiologists, provides valuable resources to the private practitioner in audiology and to other audiology professionals who have responsibility for the concerns of quality patient care and business operation. For 30 years, ADA has been a primary leader in shaping the profession's autonomy, identity, and unique ability of today's dispensing Doctor of Audiology. Fostering an international community of audiologists and prospective audiologists through its "just the right size" conventions, forum communities, and student mentor program, ADA strives to be the leader in professional development, high ethical standards, career enhancement, practice improvement, and student outreach.
