How is Optometry’s Meeting® CE attendance verified?

Attendees must have their badges scanned upon arrival outside of each course room. If an attendee fails to scan their badge prior to entry, their credit will not be accepted. NOTE: The AOA will report your credit to COPE and CE Broker so long as the attendee provided accurate information, (e.g., OE Tracker number and/or state license number) during registration ; the AOA does not report credit to individual state boards. For any issues with your Optometry's Meeting® CE, please email omeducation@aoa.org
