Abstract:
The study aimed to reveal the effectiveness of the program presented in the study in improving the level of hearing skills, language growth and social interaction after the implementation of the program of hearing skills for cochlear implants children, and to reveal the continuity of the program's effectiveness after two months of the application of the hearing skills program to the sample members. The study sample consisted of (12) newborn cochlear implanted children and their mothers divided into.

The researcher used the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale - The Fifth Image (By Mahmoud Abu Al-Nil, 2011), The KnowledgeAble Language Scale (By Ahmed Abu Hassiba et al., 2011), Cochlear Social Interaction Scale (By-AbdulAziz Person, 2014) and Auditory Skills Development Program (Researcher's Preparation).

The results of the study resulted in the following:
- There are statistically significant differences between the mean ranks of children of cochlear implants in favour of the experimental group on the Hearing Skills, Language Development, Social Interaction Scale (dimensions –total score) before and after the program application for the post test.
-There are no statistically significant differences between the mean ranks of children of cochlear implants from experimental group in the two post and iterative measurements on the Hearing Skills, Language Development, Social Interaction Scale (dimensions –total score).
