Defining interdisciplinary competencies for audiological rehabilitation: findings from a modified Delphi study.
International Journal of Audiology 2018 Februrary
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study is to derive a consensus on an interdisciplinary competency framework regarding a holistic approach for audiological rehabilitation (AR), which includes disciplines from medicine, engineering, social sciences and humanities.
DESIGN: We employed a modified Delphi method. In the first round survey, experts were asked to rate an initial list of 28 generic interdisciplinary competencies and to propose specific knowledge areas for AR. In the second round, experts were asked to reconsider their answers in light of the group answers of the first round.
STUDY SAMPLE: An international panel of 27 experts from different disciplines in AR completed the first round. Twenty-two of them completed the second round.
RESULTS: We developed a competency framework consisting of 21 generic interdisciplinary competencies grouped in five domains and nine specific competencies (knowledge areas) in three clusters. Suggestions for the implementation of the generic competencies in interdisciplinary programmes were identified.
CONCLUSIONS: This study reveals insights into the interdisciplinary competencies that are unique for AR. The framework will be useful for educators in developing interdisciplinary programmes as well as for professionals in considering their lifelong training needs in AR.
