The Pennsylvania Board of Optometry has notified the NGS that we no longer need to apply for course approval for NGS webinars. Because the Pennsylvania Board has determined that NGS webinars are included under State Regulation 23.86(d), eligibility for course credit is based on provider qualifications. Starting in December 2016, CE certificates from NGS webinars for doctors in Pennsylvania will have an indication that the course is qualified as on-line CE but will not have an individual course approval number.NGS LIVE WEBINARS = CATEGORY 1 ABO
We have received confirmation that the NGS live webinars now count as Category 1 Education towards American Board of Optometry (ABO) certification.TEST YOUR COMPUTER BEFORE A WEBINAR
