If you are an audiologist looking to progress your career, we are proud to be the first Irish University and one of seven universities to participate in the British Academy of Audiology (BAA) Higher Training Scheme starting September, 2023 with our MicroCreds courses.

The Higher Training Scheme (HTS) is a formally assessed and recognised, standardised training route developed by the British Academy of Audiology (BAA). It enables individuals to demonstrate clinical competency in specialist clinical areas. Through a modular scheme, individuals can acquire the depth and breadth of knowledge, as well as competence to fulfil the needs of specialist and advanced practitioners within Audiology.

We have created a leaflet with commonly asked questions which you can find here: Higher Training Scheme. The BAA have also created the following leaflets:

• BAA HTS 5 Steps
• HTS Frequently Asked Questions BAA

You can also visit the BAA website for more information. To apply for a course, please visit our MicroCreds Courses section.

The following table outlines the different modules offered for the Higher Training Scheme (HTS) for each Clinical Speciality.
