POPDHH is working in collaboration with districts and provincial partners to use more consistent language for job titles, including for Teachers of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (TDHH). The Canadian Association of Educators of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing ( CAEDHH) and the training programs for TDHHs in Canada are recommending that educators use the title of TDHH. The goal of replacing Hearing Resource Teacher ( HRT) or similar in favour of using the preferred title of TDHH is to emphasize that the job is about more than just the hearing piece: for many deaf learners the hearing is a moot point with a focus on accessing language and curriculum using other modalities. In our work with the Ministry of Education and Child Care, BCPSEA and Make a Future, we have learned that having a consistent name for the title of the job may also be beneficial to the districts and the province in terms of recruitment and data tracking. Please do not hesitate to contact our office if you have any questions about this initiative!
