In May and September 2024, ECOO organised two key consortium meetings, gathering 30 to 40 educators from across Europe to discuss collaboration to advance optometric education.
The two consortium meetings underscored a shared commitment to advancing optometric education across Europe and showcased the expertise and enthusiasm of optometric educators to exchange ideas and share advanced pedagogical practice. By fostering collaboration among educators, ECOO has set the stage for future projects that could be funded with a view to strengthening optometric education across Europe, helping institutions meet accreditation requirements and equipping the next generation of optometrists with the skills and knowledge necessary for comprehensive eye care.
