SECO 2008 Continuing Education Program Offerings
Raise the Bar in Your Practice
Throughout the continuing education program SECO has assembled, attendees
will see the Raising the Bar theme in the continuing education tracks and
course titles. Athletic-themed icons and images in the program reinforce the
theme of challenging our attendees to exceed the expectations of their patients
and overcome hurdles to attain a successful practice.

Student Education
Young optometrists are challenged to succeed from the moment they graduate
optometry school. SECO International offers a one-day education program,
Saturday, March 1, 2008, to help students prepare to face important decisions
when they enter the optometric profession. The optometry student education
program is produced by SECO International, LLC, and supported in part by
The Vision Care Institute.

Joint Education Opportunities
It sounds a bit cliché, but we all know it’s true – optometry is a team sport. And,
SECO has designed several of its courses to accommodate optometric team
learning. The "One Team, One Dream" Track includes five courses to help ODs
and AOPs hone their practice management skills. Finally, the optometry team can
take advantage of "Closing Ceremonies – The Thrill of Vision to the Agony of Da
Feet," which looks at systemic and ocular disease. Joint courses may be found in
both education programs.
