    Hello Prospective Student:

    I don't know each State's licensing requirements or if Arizona even offers an exam, Dispensing and/or Contact Lens Fitting. I also don't know you or your academic background (elementary Algebra is a must-have requirement). But I am encouraged by your response.

    I believe there is no reason why our BCCO graduates would be unable to pass any theory and practical
    opticianry exams anywhere in the USA.
    Proviso... we teach all the opticianry topics but if your individual State (Arizona?) requires State/Federal knowledge of other optical related organizations like HIPPA, etc then you will have to pick up that particular information on your own. We teach a Canadian 3-month CL fitting program.

    Willing to give it a try?

    As you know, much of the USA has no formal schooling requirements in opticianry. And we believe that our accelerated '6-month DISPENSING/CONTACT LENS FITTING' program and '3-month 'CONTACT LENS FITTER only' program can help fill that gap.

    However, you must be also willing to invest in yourself... so find three (3) months of living expenses (about $3000+) and travel to our school her in British Columbia.

    I am offering a No-Money Up-Front GUARANTEE to all US residents in unlicensed States wanting a comprehensive yet fast-paced contact lens fitting education.

    You may sit through our 3-month CL program for the first month here in Beautiful BC as a class observer... absolutely FREE!!

    Then 1-month later, if our CL training proves not to your liking, we will shake hands and you can return to States owing us absolutely nothing. This offer is better than a Money-Back Guarantee, as you must pay absolutely nothing up-front. And if you choose to stay in classes, then you pay for our 3-month program in full, as fairness to your Canadian classmates.

    We have never tried this before, but if you have the required Math background and want to join our July 14th
    3-month class CL class (and are a motivated learner), let's see how this 1-time offer develops.
