ABDO holds optical assistant workshop

A group of optical assistants on the Association of British Dispensing Opticians (ABDO) College’s Optical Assistant course participated in a workshop at ABDO’s National Resource Centre.

The workshop allowed optical assistants to develop their skills in spectacle repairs, adjustments and pre-screening.

ABDO College’s head of Operations Steve Hertz said: ‘The day was fully booked more than a month ahead which confirmed our thinking that those working in assistant roles are keen to progress and expand their skills. The feedback from students that I have received so far has been lovely to hear and shows that a fantastic day was had by all. Well done to the staff and students for making it such a positive, informative experience!’
