What is a Student Volunteer?
Student Volunteers exchange up to five hours of their time at AudiologyNOW! to assist the Academy with booths, educational sessions, and events and in return receive complimentary registration to the conference.
How the Student Volunteer process works
First you must qualify and meet the requirements to become a Student Volunteer. Read more about Qualifications and Requirements.
Starting October 1 – 15, students will be able to enter into a random drawing for a limited number of student volunteer opportunities, by following a link posted at the top of this page.
Note: Entering into the drawing does not guarantee a volunteer time slot. Multiple entries will not be accepted. For guaranteed entry into AudiologyNOW! register as a Student Member ($45) and take full advantage of the professional and educational benefits it has to offer.
On October 21, instructions on how to register will be sent to those who were chosen by random drawing for a volunteer time slot. Those who were not chosen will also receive an email notification with details on how and when to register.
Swapping volunteer times is not permitted under any circumstance.
Assignments:
Time slots and assignments are formed based on how many volunteers are needed for each area where the Academy needs assistance.
All volunteers will receive their assignments and details/tips via email prior to AudiologyNOW!. Please check your spam folders prior to contacting us about your emailed assignment.
On-site:
Your assignment start time is the time you are expected to be at your designated location. It is recommended that you arrive to check-in at the Student Volunteer booth in Academy Central approximately 15 minutes prior to you start time to ensure you are not late to your assignment location.
Student Volunteer Cancellation Policy
Cancellations must be received via email to Student Volunteers. Students who cancel after February 26 will be charged a cancellation fee of $100.
