The Professional Guidance Group (PGG) is responsible for coordinating production of BSA documents prior to final sign-off by the BSA Council. This includes Recommended Procedures and Clinical Guidance. Most documents are authorised by the special interest groups (SIGs) and the PGG must work with them to agree the guidance and seek expert peer review. The PGG is also responsible for authorising some documents on general topics such as PTA, tympanometry and acoustics.
It is a the core function of the BSA to produce learned guidance, so its good international reputation is dependent on the documents it publishes. The role of the PGG is therefore crucial in coordinating production of documents and includes: review and commenting on draft guidance, ensuring that it is evidence-based, current, relevant, of high impact and quality. The PGG must ultimately uphold high standards that maintains the BSA’s reputation.
PGG are seeking individuals who can give some of their time to this important and influential role. It is critical to the BSA’s function and supports the whole of the audiology profession. The PGG meets every month but PGG members will review (or occasionally author) documents between meetings as they are produced. Documents cover all areas of audiology, so volunteers may be generalists or specialists in any area. The PGG is responsible to the BSA Council.
Please consider joining the PGG. All applicants must be a member of BSA, and PGG will consider members with all levels of experience. For further information and for an application form, please email bsa@thebsa.org.uk.
