The Admissions Director shares some history
The Voice Academy was launched in 2003 following two years of development.
The project team created this virtual school in response to a request from the
National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders for health
education programs for the public.
The decision to develop an outreach for the hard-working voices of schoolteachers was a 'no brainer' based on compelling research showing a high incidence of voice problems in the profession.
In its original form, the Voice Academy included several registration
steps. Collection of these data fulfilled project requirements to measure user
demographics and learning effectiveness. Now that data collection tasks are
complete, users can move seamlessly through the Voice Academy's hallways
to soak up knowledge about care of the voice.
