Their excellent, modern, state of the art venue is a natural UK home for our Refraction Certificate examination, offering UK candidates a venue that is easily accessible with its central UK location. We look forward to a long and fruitful collaboration with them.”
Mat Stringer, NRC Operations Manager stated: “It makes perfect sense for the NRC to provide the Royal College of Ophthalmologists, their students and examiners, with a venue for their refraction exams in 2023 and 2024. Our teams work seamlessly together and the NRC is the perfect facility with the clinical bays, reception, briefing and de-briefing areas all synced for seamless examinations. I hope this collaboration will continue for many more years.”
