BSHAA Visits The DMU 

Giulio Specchia (BSHAA Director of Workforce and Policy) and Zoe Perry (BSHAA Operations Manager) had the pleasure of joining the Audiology students at De Montfort University for their Employability Day.  

 
 

It was great to meet the students, lecturers, and representatives from manufacturers, potential employers, and fellow professional bodies, to discuss the hearing care industry and the vast variety of career paths available within the audiology profession.  

 
 

We feel it is so important to support and educate the next generation of Audiologists, helping them to shape the future of Audiology.
