CBT-Hear Shanghai 2027 is a hybrid training programme for otologists, otolaryngologists, neurotologists, audiologists, psychiatrists, psychologists, neurologists, psychotherapists, counsellors, social workers, and other qualified healthcare professionals involved in the care of people with tinnitus, hyperacusis, and misophonia.

The programme combines a 2-day face-to-face masterclass with 12 months of online learning and professional development. Throughout the year, participants will engage in online lectures and teaching, clinical supervision, reflective practice, case discussions, mentorship, and access to the CBT-Hear learning platform and educational resources.

The programme is designed to help clinicians develop their knowledge and skills in the assessment and management of tinnitus, hyperacusis, and misophonia-related distress, with particular emphasis on integrating cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) principles into clinical practice.

Graduates who successfully complete the programme will achieve CBT-Hear Certified Practitioner status. Certified Practitioners are trained to deliver specialised rehabilitation programmes based on cognitive behavioural therapy for patients experiencing distress associated with tinnitus, hyperacusis, and misophonia, while working within their professional scope of practice.

Following certification, participants may progress to CBT-Hear Certified Advanced Clinician, which focuses on the management of more complex presentations involving multidisciplinary collaboration. Further progression to CBT-Hear Fellowship is available for clinicians who demonstrate ongoing professional development, clinical achievement, and contributions to the field.

The CBT-Hear Public Register lists clinicians who are registered within the CBT-Hear Certification Programme and authorised to use CBT-Hear professional titles at their recorded certification level. Inclusion on the register confirms that a clinician has met the requirements for registration at that level and agrees to practise in accordance with the CBT-Hear Code of Ethics, Scope of Practice, and governance standards. The register serves as the authoritative source of current registration status.
