56 | 2021 ASCRS Annual Meeting Preview Program TECHNICIANS & NURSES PROGRAM AND SCHEDULE AT A GNCE Technicians & Nurses Program The International Joint Commission on Allied Health Personnel in Ophthalmology (IJCAHPO) is pleased to sponsor the Technicians & Nurses Program, July 23–25, 2021, at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Convention Center, in Las Vegas, Nevada. IJCAHPO is the international certifying agency for allied ophthalmic personnel. Certification is available at three levels: assistant, technician, and medical technologist, along with subspecialty certifications available for surgical assisting, ultrasound biometrist, diagnostic sonographer, scribe certification, and corporate assistant. Included in the registration fee for the 2-and-a-half day Clinical and Surgical/ASC Program are an additional five online, on- demand courses. Registration for the onsite program must be completed first, then you will be sent an application to register for your five complimentary online courses. IJCAHPO is also offering the COT Certification Exam Prep Course on Friday afternoon, July 23, at the Mandalay Bay Resort. Registration for the main Technicians & Nurses Program is separate from the Certification Exam Prep Course. Attendees must register and pay a fee separate and independent of the main program. Please visit the registration desk outside the course room for onsite ticket availability. For the Technician & Nurses Program, attendees do not register for each course independently. They can choose to attend individual courses from either of the two sessions each day. There are no individual tickets sold for courses; your badge allows access to any of the courses in this two-track program. A joint registration category is available for those interested in attending both the ASOA practice management and Technicians & Nurses Programs.
