Course content may be accessed through this site, and or third party web sites. You will be able to view course content before deciding to take the post-course test for credit.

In order to take a course examination and attain an accreditation certificate, users are required to register on this site. (see Privacy Policy below)

Please note that courses may have expiry dates which are published on this site.

Some courses require online payment to access the post-course test. Once the course is purchased you will have three opportunities to achieve the passing grade. After the third attempt, you will need to repurchase the exam before trying again.

Courses may also be provided on a complimentary basis via an education grant by third parties, referred to as a “Granted Course”. In such instances there is either no or a reduced cost to the course taker. In such instances, the third-party grantor to the course will be clearly identified. Such courses, however, are subject to the same post-course test and certificate generation as indicated above. By enrolling in a “granted course”, the user is providing permission to be contacted by OptikConEd on behalf of the granting organization. In certain cases, enrollment may also grant permission to be contacted directly by the granting organization. Such instances will be clearly marked for your attention.
