SCOLA is a complete wireless FM system designed to ac-

commodate most of the varied listening challenges that

hearing aid users will encounter in an educational context.

SCOLA alleviates the problem of background noise and

greatly improves the signal-to-noise ratio of the transmit-

ted sound by picking up the sound close to the mouth of

the speaker and relaying this to the user’s hearing aid by

means of wireless FM transmission.

Various options are available in the SCOLA system for

both the transmission and reception of the signal, depend-

ing on the specific needs of the users.

These include:

• SCOLAtalk is an FM transmitter with a built-in multidi-

rectional microphone system

• SCOLAteach is a robust microphone/transmitter de-

signed particularly for teachers in school environments

• SCOLAﬂex is a wireless, miniature FM receiver which

attaches to the hearing aid using a slide-on ‘shoe’ or

3-pin Euro plug.

Now, SCOLA

buddy makes this system even more flex-

ible and useful by adding a further possibility:

• A body-worn FM receiver which can deliver the signal to

any hearing aid equipped with a telecoil via an inductive

loop worn around the neck.

The result is a simple and cost-effective solution which is

ideal not just for schools, but for the many social situations

that make up life.
