Education
Overview
JCAHPO's continuing education (CE) programs are designed to increase the knowledge
and skills of ophthalmic medical personnel as they work toward certification or
recertification. CE credits are awarded for participation in a wide range of programs
and activities including lectures and workshops, independent study, and teaching
approved courses. CE credits may be earned through participation in JCAHPO programs
as well as independent programs approved for credit by JCAHPO.
Group A/B Credits
JCAHPO CE credits are classified as Group A or Group B. Credits can be earned from
either or both groups, depending on the level of certification. Group A credit is
awarded for activities focused on topics listed in the
JCAHPO Criteria for Certification and Recertification
handbook; Group B credit is awarded for activities focused on more advanced
topics not listed in this handbook.
