The Academy of Doctors of Audiology (ADA) is dedicated to the advancement of practitioner excellence, high ethical standards, professional autonomy and sound business practices in the provision of quality audiologic care.

ADA was founded by nine practitioners in 1977, as the Academy of Dispensing Audiologists, to foster and support the professional dispensing of hearing aids by qualified audiologists in rehabilitative practices. Later, in 1988, ADA developed the concept of the Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) degree and provided much of the energy behind the movement for the transition of audiology to a doctoring healthcare profession. This goal, as well, has been largely met, as the Au.D. is now the minimum degree for audiology practice offered by educational institutions in the United States.

Through building relationships and influencing others, the mission of APTA Kentucky (APTA-KY) is to lead, educate, mentor and respond to the dynamic needs and interests of its membership. APTA Kentucky is a member-driven organization that promotes the profession of physical therapy in Kentucky.

The first physical therapist arrived in Kentucky in 1935. Within the next few years Mary McDonnell was joined by 15 of her colleagues. They came to fight the crippling effects of polio. They touched the lives of World War II veterans whose bodies were mangled and broken. In 1947, feeling the need to unite and expand their knowledge, they founded the Kentucky Chapter of the American Physical Therapy Association. These pioneers could only dream their association, which started with 16 members, would grow to serve over 2,000.

The Kentucky Academy of Audiology (KAA) is a professional organization dedicated to advancing hearing and balance care across Kentucky through advocacy, education, public awareness, and research.

KAA actively supports legislative efforts such as single licensure for audiologists (House Bill 458) and hearing-aid coverage reforms (Senate Bill 93), and it also backs Kentucky’s entry into the Audiology & Speech-Language Pathology Interstate Compact. The organization engages students through scholarships and free memberships, and provides recorded CE sessions online. KAA’s headquarters are in Frankfort and it continues to be a key voice for audiology professionals across the state.
