NORTH CAROLINA OPTICIANS ASSOCIATION
2026 CE Info:
There will be one price that will allow you to attend as many classes that the NCOA hosts as you would like and you get NCOA membership included.
For $130 you gain access to as many NCOA Continuing Education credits as you would like to attend but we do ask that you RSVP if you plan to attend in a city other than the one you registered to attend.
After purchase, you will receive a receipt by email, which will serve as your proof of purchase for this year's CE credits. You do not need tickets.
When you arrive for CE, we will issue you stickers with barcodes linked to your name and license number. To receive credit for each class, attach one of the stickers to the white page for the class and turn the white page back in at the end of the class.
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR LICENSE NUMBER IS CORRECT.

The NCOA is dedicated to educating and protecting North Carolina Opticians. Since 1950 the NCOA has been working to support the optical industry and the professionals that work in North Carolina dispensaries each day. We are working hard to create a website that will allow you to access information as well as register for continuing education classes, become an NCOA member, and easily locate other information relevant to licensed opticians in North Carolina.
