Seven eye care professionals were presented with their LOCSU leadership certificates at the National Optical Conference.
The course, which included six contact days, provided training for the LOC members to build networks, influence policy makers and develop enhanced services.
LOCSU chairman Alan Tinger said: ‘Of all the things LOCSU does this course is very high on the agenda.’
