At last its just about finished!

After many attempts i have managed to set up to courses for professionals and parents in tint uses and prescribing and intend to market them in September /October.

The first level course is for parents and non optical professionals - it will allow tint assessment and contains a kit with around 3000 tint colours - and it's cheap!
It will allow a parent to determine best filter in an almost ideal colour space range, but not to determine optometric lens taking metamerism into account . This can be done online.

The second level is for professionals (and parents if they wish), which incorporates tint prescribing theory and contains a lot of patient videos. It is radical in comparison to current optical training, but the science is well established (or at least most of it is)
There are a few bits of conjecture, but there are good reasons for it. I suspect few optical professionals think they understand tint prescribing theory, this course will explain it.


I am not sure whether to offer it on Udemy or keep it private and offer it on a website.
I want to keep it low cost - under $100 for level 2 including downloadable tests and books.
and around $50 for level 1 including assessment kit (which could be used by optical professionals that don't have specialised instrumentation).

Do the professions want it kept private at this stage or should the public be given sufficient information to tell the optical professional what they require?

This hopefully will be treated as an opportunity, not a threat, as I believe this will enhance optical professionalism.

Comments and advice would be appreciated.
