Welcome to our New Website

The Michigan Audiology Coalition is please to release our redesigned website for the 2013 conference.  We have rolled out a more integrated process for registering online.  We also hope the new website will be easier to navigate as well as optimized for mobile devices.  Please use our feedback page if you have any questions, comments or concerns.  

Mailing Address

It has come to our attention that part of the mailing address was omitted from the mail in registration form. We are currently working to get this form redesigned.  In the interum the correct mailing address is 

Michigan Audiology Coalition
3148 Plainfield Ave NE #213
Grand Rapids, MI  49525

We will, of course, extend the early registration deadline to October, 12th 

 

Conference Format Change

The MAC planning committee is pleased to announce a change to the upcoming 2012 conference format.  Based upon your feedback, this year’s conference will run all day Thursday and all day Friday.  We hope that extending the number of sessions on Thursday and eliminating the Saturday morning sessions will allow more audiologists to attend the entire conference.  Inspite of these changes, MAC will continue to offer over 1.0 CEUs!   

More details to follow in the near future.  The planning committee looks forward to seeing you at the 2012 MAC on M.A.C. conference- October 25th&26th.
