Abstract Information:	Title: Michigan's On Line Hearing Screener Training Primary Track: 1-EHDI Program Enhancement Keyword(s): Michigan Public Health Institute Abstract: Michigan has developed an on line modular hearing screener training course for nurses, hearing screeners and audiologists that manage newborn hearing screening programs. This free course has Michigan specific information for reporting and follow up and offers nursing contact hours. It has expanded on the efforts of the NCHAM newborn hearing screening video to also include an overview of the EHDI Program, a course on how we hear, Michigan guidelines for newborn hearing screening programs and program management. Information will be given as to how others can customize this on line training with their own State specific information. Presentation(s): Not Available Handouts: Not Available
