Who Pays for COPE?
COPE charges instructors a fee to review a course when it is submitted for COPE Qualification. Additionally, a filing fee is charged when the CE Administrator submits the list of selected courses for reporting to boards of optometry. All fees are kept as low as possible, and are set to cover the functioning of COPE only. Boards of optometry are not charged a fee, as COPE is a benefit for members of ARBO.
