Hiho, England!
I have a student who will be moving to London this fall. She needs some information on licensure 'over there'. She will have completed a two year didactic/ theory program and amassed over 2000 hours dispensing (or more). She will have received a Canadian certificate level parchment, and will be licensed in the Province of Alberta as a Registered Optician.
On her behalf, I enquire as to the routes she must go thru. Aren't RO's (Registered Opticians)- that's what we are- (like a Registered Nurse is an RN) performing refractions in England? Would she have to upgrade? Can she dispense?
Thoughts, but more importantly, facts are appreciated.
From the Colonies,
Shwing
