Participate in a Pilot!

Closes January 12, 2020

 

COBC and NACOR are currently working with optician regulators from across Canada to develop an online assessment that will be used to assess the competence of internationally trained opticians wanting to move to Canada. We need opticians (particularly in refracting!) to participate in a pilot of these items, to make sure the questions are easily understandable and perform well.

You can use participation in this pilot to address one or more competency area(s) for your Continuing Competency Program, and will be entered in 5 random draws for a $100 Visa gift card.
