 Welcome to the web site of the Association of Regulatory Boards of Optometry (ARBO). ARBO's web site is designed to provide resources to state regulatory boards of optometry throughout North America.

State boards of optometry serve as the licensing and regulatory arm of the optometric profession by formulating rules, or regulations, that govern and enforce the laws that grant the privilege to practice optometry, which are enacted by state legislatures.

OE TRACKER
Optometrists can review their continuing education (CE) attendance data anytime from anywhere.  They can view their chronological course history and print a transcript or paper certificates. 

COPE
The Council on Optometric Practitioner Education (COPE), the national clearinghouse for optometry CE courses, currently is accepted by 52 US boards of optometry.  Instructors can submit courses for COPE qualification and CE Administrators can submit their events (meeting, conference, etc.) for COPE Approval.

Mission Statement
The mission of the Association of Regulatory Boards of Optometry is to represent and assist member licensing agencies in regulating the practice of optometry for the public welfare.
