iFocus Canada Excellence Award

EXCELLENCE is not a question of technical skills, but of character… A character trait that, by its constancy and dedication, inspires others. Today, REGARD ACTION is looking for those people who have become accustomed to doing everyday things in extraordinary ways!

OBJECTIVES

The Excellence Awards recognize the dedication, passion, ambition, dynamism and involvement of vision and emerging professionals in the field. This mobilizing project was created to recognize and acknowledge the talent of all: optometrists, opticians, support staff and students.

AGENDA

Over the past few years, optometrists, opticians and optics students have been honored at the coop’s annual conferences.

This year, some novelties are emerging. First, a new category for support staff is added in addition to the 3 current categories: Optometrist, Optician and Emerging Professionals. Whether you are a secretary, stylist or assistant, you also deserve to be recognized for your work.

In addition, 2 scholarships of $1,000 will be awarded: one to a student in Optometry and the other to a student in Visual Orthosis Studies.
