An initiative to raise awareness of optics in schools has been shortlisted for two further awards - as an official timetable takes shape for the new term.
The Careers in Optics working group has been shortlisted for The Personnel Today Award 2011 in the innovation in recruitment category and the Recruitment Business Awards 2011 for student recruitment. It follows success in the Recruiter Awards for Excellence 2011 in May.
Following a successful pilot scheme last term, workshops will take place across UK schools this autumn.
The working group has also set up training for optometrists looking to get involved with the workshops, which use the principles of 3D vision as a springboard for children to learn about illusions, light and vision.
