CONTINUING EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS
COPE APPROVAL - ALL CE, ALL THE TIME®!
COPE approval benefits Academy 2014 Denver registrants by
guaranteeing that courses attended at the meeting will qualify for
continuing education credit in most states. It is advised that attendees
check with their state board office to clarify any special conditions
attached to the acceptance. The Academy’s lectures, workshops,
symposia, and special sessions are COPE and CE Broker (Florida)
approved. The Scientific Program (papers and posters) has been
submitted to state boards for approval.
CONTINUING EDUCATION (CE) GUIDELINES
CE TRACKING

• You should have received a sheet of barcode labels in your
registration packet. Each barcode is the same and represents your
badge number.
• You will be handed pre-populated verification forms for each
course. Please place your barcode label on the form in the space
indicated. At the conclusion of the course, please give the portion of
the verification form with the barcode on it to the CE monitors, and
retain the verification stub for your records.
For all lectures, workshops, symposia and special sessions (fixed
credit)
• Anyone entering after the 10-minute grace period will NOT receive
a verification form; you are welcome to enter the room for personal
enrichment, but no credit will be awarded.
• Anyone leaving before the course is over and attempting to turn in
the verification stub will be informed that credit will not be given.
• One hour of continuing education credit will not be given to
attendees who attend only one hour of a two-or three-hour lecture
or workshop. Two hours of continuing education will not be given to
attendees who attend only two hours of a three-hour workshop.

ACADEMY EDUCATION ACADEMY EDUCATION
For papers and posters (variable credit)
You will receive a blank evaluation form with spaces where the monitors
will enter the times in and out, and a verification form where you can
keep track of your own times. If you are planning to re-enter (as is
common, especially with papers), please keep the evaluation form and
turn it in once you are finished in that particular session. Each entry and
exit will receive a time stamp (even for restroom breaks).
Only two hours of CE credit for poster sessions will be granted
each day. Credit for the Scientific Program (papers and posters) is
accumulated in 15-minute segments throughout each day. Reporting of
attendance to state boards, if required, is the individual’s responsibility
unless state law or regulations indicate otherwise.
How will I receive my CE certificate?
Following the meeting, a link will be emailed to you to print your CE
certificate at your leisure. The email address you provided when
registering will be used.
How will my credits be transferred to the OE Tracker database?
After the meeting, the credits for those doctors who had provided
their OE Tracker numbers will be sent to ARBO, and the data will be
uploaded to their records at www.arbo.org.
How will my credits be transferred to the CE Broker database?
After the meeting, the credits for those doctors who had provided us
with their Florida license numbers will be uploaded to CE Broker.
Can I get CE credit for poster sessions?
Yes! You accrue the credits in 15 minute increments. These will be
calculated based on entry and exit times.

ACADEMY EDUCATION
Are paper sessions approved for CE credit?
Definitely! You can attend the Scientific Program sessions and accrue
credits in 15 minute increments.
How do I take Continuing Education with Examination (CEE)?
CEE courses will be presented all four days. Email and mail-in forms to
request exams from the Illinois College of Optometry will be available at
the Education Desk in the convention center.
