This paper describes the results from the iterative development and usability testing of an online audiological rehabilitation (OAR) program.  The OAR was based on previous experience with Internet interventions and OAR.


 The described OAR consisted of weekly learning modules, each of which had a specific topic and contained information and learning activities.  The early findings from the first version of the OAR showed that participants had difficulty navigating the system.  As a result of the usability testing, a second major edition of the OAR program was developed, and the participants found it easier to manage and that it enhanced the learning experience.  The early findings from the usability test of the program provided useful information as to how content can be developed and delivered for optimal user accessibility within the scope of OAR.
