In a method for individualized training of hearing aid users a number of hearing training courses are stored in a databank. An individual user profile is acquired in a training device. A transmission of the hearing training data from the databank to the training device and/or vice versa ensues via a data network before or during the implementation of the hearing training. The training thus ensues adapted to the respective user profile by means of one or more individualized hearing training courses.

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention is directed to a system for training hearing aid users, having a databank for storing a number of hearing training courses and a training device for acquiring a user profile and for implementing one of the hearing training courses according to the user profile. The present invention is directed to a method for the implementation of such training.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The single FIGURE is a flowchart of the inventive, individually adaptive hearing training.
The following exemplary embodiment represents a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
The left side of the FIGURE illustrates the offline production of the various hearing training [courses] on the basis of specific user profiles. The right side of the FIGURE shows the on-line application of the hearing training.
The individual hearing training courses are stored offline in a databank 1. To this end, a representative selection of user profiles 2 is first generated. Subsequently, the hearing training courses 41 through 4n are produced for the profiles 1 through n. The hearing training 41 for profile 1 contains exercises for speech comprehension and hearing tactics as well as technical advice. The hearing training 4n for profile n contains, for example, advanced hearing exercises.
