    I have my ABO certification right now. Do many retail environments and clinics like if you have NCLE as well?

    My doctor has told me it depends on your state. Our state is not a licensing state so becoming certified is completely optional. She said to me that most employers(looking for opticians) value ABO certification much more than NCLE.

    So basically I got the message that NCLE was not a big deal in my area. I still think that someone with duel certificates is valued more than a single ABO.(You would certainly be the CL expert in your facility and know more information and facts about CLs)

    What have others had success with as far as study guides for the ncle? I will be taking the exam in November and am purchasing my own study materials. I have seen several study guides on NAO, but don't know anyone who has used them.

    Wes has some super stuff that he was generous enough to share with me. You might be able to coax him to share.
    This message is brought to you by the letters ABOC and NCLEC.
