The research aimed to identify the effectiveness of the training program in developing auditory processing and its impact in improving the language skills among hard of hearing students. The research sample consisted of (20) hard of hearing students, whose ages ranged between (9-12) years, with an average age of (10.50) and a standard deviation of (1.00), and they were divided into two equal groups, one experimental and the other control, the strength of each (10) students. The study tools included the auditory processing scale, the language skills scale, and the training program. The study method was an experimental approach with two experimental and control groups. The research results revealed that there were statistically significant differences at the significance level (0.01) between the average scores of the experimental and control groups in both auditory processing and linguistic skills in the post-assessment in the favor of the experimental group. The results resulted in statistically significant differences at the significance level (0.01) between the average ranks of the experimental group’s scores in both auditory processing and linguistic skills in the pre-and post-assessment in favor of the post-assessment. The results also revealed that there were no statistically significant differences between the average ranks of the experimental group’s scores in both auditory processing and language skills in the post and follow-up assessment.
