#  ADA Practice Accreditation Program Inaugural Cohort Registration Now Open

![](https://audiologist.org/_resources/images/news/2025/2025-10-31-accredited.jpg)The Academy of Doctors of Audiology (ADA) is pleased to announce that it is now [accepting registrations](https://www.cognitoforms.com/AcademyOfDoctorsOfAudiology/ADAPracticeAccreditationInauguralCohortRegistrationApplication) for the inaugural cohort of the [ADA Audiology Practice Accreditation Program](https://audiologist.org/about/academy-documents/accreditation-standards). **The registration deadline is Friday, December 5, 2025, or when a maximum of 50 practice registrants is achieved**.

[ADA Audiology Practice Accreditation](https://audiologist.org/about/academy-documents/accreditation-standards) is designed to strengthen and streamline practice operations, align with evidence‑based standards, and demonstrate accountability to patients and payers.

The [ADA Audiology Practice Accreditation Standards](https://audiologist.org/_resources/documents/about/academy-docs/Accreditation-Standards.pdf) were developed through expert consensus and peer review, and were adopted by ADA members in 2025. Key principles of the accreditation standards include reliance on evidence‑based clinical and business practices to ensure exceptional patient care, and a commitment to ethical, legal, clinical, operational, and relational excellence.

Participants accepted into the inaugural cohort will benefit from extensive coaching during the first quarter of 2026. Live and recorded virtual sessions will help practices develop, update, and ratify policies, procedures, and documentation, so they are ready to formally submit their accreditation materials for accreditation review by March 31, 2026. While acceptance into the cohort does not guarantee accreditation status, this program is designed to prepare practices for success.

ADA Audiology Practice Accreditation is valid for a three‑year cycle. A single accreditation fee covers the entire cycle, with no annual maintenance fee required. Practice accreditation fees are $1,000 per site/practice location for inaugural cohort participants who are members of ADA. Practice accreditation fees for non‑members are $2,500 per site/practice location.

To register, please review the [ADA Audiology Practice Accreditation Standards](https://audiologist.org/_resources/documents/about/academy-docs/Accreditation-Standards.pdf) and then complete the [online registration form](https://www.cognitoforms.com/AcademyOfDoctorsOfAudiology/ADAPracticeAccreditationInauguralCohortRegistrationApplication).
