Auditory Integration Training (AIT) is presented as a sound‑based educational program that helps retrain the way the brain processes auditory information. The Parent Resource Page introduces families to the purpose of AIT, explaining that it was developed to reduce auditory hypersensitivity and improve listening, communication, and learning.
Training begins with an initial evaluation session in which an audiogram is conducted to assess whether Auditory Integration Training may be beneficial. The results of the audiogram are then used to design a personalized listening program tailored to the individual’s needs. The listening program is broken up into Twenty 30 minute sessions conducted over a ten day period.
