GOC releases CET guidance booklet

A booklet providing guidance for the 2016-18 Continuing Education and Training (CET) cycle has been produced by the General Optical Council.

Changes included the new Standards of Practice competency for optometrists and dispensing opticians, with the GOC’s new Standards of Practice in force from April.

GOC acting head of education and standards Marcus Dye said: ‘This guide is intended to help registrants get the most out of their CET, and I encourage all registrants to use this booklet to ensure that they maintain and develop their skills and knowledge.

‘We have taken on board feedback from registrants in making clearer some aspects of MyCET, and have included further guidance on how registrants can apply to provide peer review sessions through the system.
