Join in ECO events and activities

If you are just starting out in optometry, we recommend finding out about Early Career Optometrists events and activities.  State-based ECO committees organise and provide access to great networking activities to assist you in building your contacts and friendships. They operate under the auspices of each state organisation and have been established to  support young optometrists up 10 years out of university.
