 NHCA
is proud to present a line of teaching tools designed to help
educate and motivate employees. These items have a multitude
of uses and are a most valuable addition to educational materials
currently available for hearing conservationists.
Profits
from NHCA Public Relations items go back into the annual
conference, the regional seminar, and toward the development
of more products to help you in your job.
The
NHCA offers posters, slides,
and a series of Practical Guides.
Items can be purchased using the order
form (PDF).
New ANSI Standard Released
The American National Standards Institute has
recently release a new
standard, S12.60-2002 "American National Standard Acoustical Performance
Criteria, Design Requirements, and Guidelines for Schools," which is
being made available for free to interested professionals. Read
the ANSI press release that
describes the standard and how to obtain it.
New Tinnitus Simulation Available
Dr. Billy Martin of the Oregon Hearing Research Center at Oregon
Health & Science University has recently given NHCA permission
to publish an audio simulation
which mimics what tinnitus (ringing in the ears) sounds
like to someone who suffers from the condition. The
file is free to download, but please provide credit to Dr.
Martin if you use the file for training or demonstration purposes.
Spreadsheet of Noise Levels
The E-A-R website has a spreadsheet
of noise levels (MS Excel) associated
with various occupational and non-occupational noise sources
that is useful for educational purposes.
