This Board for Hearing Aid Specialists was established in 1970. The purpose of this Board is to license those who are qualified, either by a temporary permit or full licensure, to test and fit individuals who need the assistance of a hearing aid. The Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation provides administrative support to the board. In 2012, the Board was merged with the Board of Opticians to create the Board for Hearing Aid Specialists and Opticians.
These records are part of the Virginia Dept. of Professional and Occupational Regulation record group (RG 17)
