The New Hampshire Board of Optometry announced in August 2022 that courses approved by COPE are automatically approved as Class I Formal CE. In addition, they clarified that live webcasts with real-time active participation by attendees are Formal CE, the same as in-person programs. In contrast, Alternative CE refers to lectures that are not live. More details are on the NH Board of Optometry website under Laws and Rules, Standing Orders.COPE RULES FOR INTERACTIVE WEBINARS 2023
As of January 2023, COPE will include interactive webinars in the same category as in-person lectures, with no post-test required. CE will be categorized as either Synchronous (lecturer and learner are together at the same time, either in-person or virtually, with real-time communication) or Asynchronous (lecturer and learner are not together at same time, no real-time communication). Interactive webinars will be labeled Synchronous Virtual CE for courses and activities submitted after January 1 (interactive webinars approved before January 1 may still be labeled Online Interactive courses or Interactive Distance Learning events). Please Note: State Boards may restrict the number of Synchronous Virtual hours of CE allowed for license renewal; check with your State Board for the latest regulations.LIVE WEBINARS = LIVE CE IN MASSACHUSETTS
At their December 15, 2021 meeting, the Massachusetts Board of Optometry specified that a live webinar where speakers and attendees can interact in real-time are considered to be live CE. The Board clarified that distance learning CE courses, which are limited to 6 hours per renewal cycle, are those where the licensees are reading content or observing media on their own with no interaction with the instructor. Thus, the COPE-approved interactive NGS webinars count as live CE for MA optometrists.CE BROKER FOR TEXAS OPTOMETRISTS
