What is the CPE program?
The CPE program is a system of accrediting and acknowledging your continuing post graduate professional training. A Certificate of Currency lets the public, health funds* and professional bodies know that you have undertaken recent educational activities relevant to your work in orthoptics. A total of 50 points is required to gain a Certificate of Currency, with points to be gained in at least two categories with a maximum of 25 points in any one category. The allocation of points is based on the educational relevance, participation level and time involved in the CPE activity. *A Certificate of Currency is accepted by a number of health funds as qualification to issue a provider number for private health rebates. Apply for a Certificate of Currency by completing a CPE Claim Form.
