Professionalism and Professional Standards for Optometrists and Opticians is a CPD-accredited course designed for registrants of the General Optical Council who wish to strengthen professional conduct and regulatory compliance.
The course explores patient-centred care, integrity, accountability, professional boundaries, confidentiality, accurate record-keeping, safeguarding, and the duty of candour within optical practice, ensuring alignment with professional and ethical standards.
It is particularly relevant for optometrists and opticians completing continuing professional development (CPD), responding to complaints, or facing fitness-to-practise investigations.
Through structured reflection and practical guidance, participants will develop insight, implement meaningful remediation, and demonstrate ongoing professional growth. This supports patient safety, maintains public confidence, and promotes continued registration with the General Optical Council.
