Be sure to complete your evaluations! The feedback you provide is incredibly important to our Conference Advisory Board as they look at content and speakers to include in future meetings and in order for us to provide you with the best education available, we need to understand what your needs are.

Please note, the Course Attendance Verification Letter will only include courses that you have attended. Vision Expo will also email your CE Letter to you after the Conference. Be sure to provide an email address with your registration record so that your CE Letter can be emailed to you. If you did not provide an email address when you registered, please call Client Services at 1-800-811-7151 to update your registration record.
