An education grant from Luxottica has made the complimentary availability of a continuing education course to all Canadian opticians through the Opticians Association of Canada’s website. The course entitled “Premium Sun Selling: Bringing Plano into the Sale”, provides premium sun selling knowledge, emphasizing the importance of UV protection and bringing premium sun eyewear to the forefront of business practice.

The course is accredited in all provinces and available in both English and French at the Opticians Association of Canada  web site. All opticians in Canada will have complementary access to this course for a limited time period.

The Premium Sun Selling course is the first offering of the continuing education collaboration between VuePoint IDS, publisher of Optik Magazine and InfoClip.ca e-newsletters and the 20/20 Opticianry Study Center, published by Jobson Medial Information LLC.
