"By working with the Lace AI Pro app, they will not only see the theory behind these activities in action but also build the practical skills needed to improve hearing outcomes for clients across both public and private healthcare settings in South Africa. This collaboration offers a truly exciting opportunity, and we are deeply grateful for the valuable learning experiences it provides our students."
