Description Ophthalmic Dispensing Diploma In the intricate world of eye care and eyewear, proficiency in the field of ophthalmic dispensing stands paramount. The Ophthalmic Dispensing Diploma offers keen learners an exceptional online platform to acquire in-depth knowledge and develop crucial skills vital for success in the realm of eyewear dispensing. When selecting the perfect frame, it isn't just about aesthetics. Frame Selection is an art, balancing the face's natural contours with the individual's lifestyle needs. This course equips students with the finesse required to expertly guide clients in their frame choices, ensuring not just clarity in vision but also an enhanced appearance. With advancements in optical science, the designs of lenses have evolved considerably. This diploma enlightens participants on Lens Design, understanding the significance of different lens types and how they can dramatically affect the wearer's vision and comfort. Coupled with this, the segment on Optical Prism clarifies the principles of prismatic corrections and how it impacts visual perception. The delicate process of Lens Insertion and Alignment can't be overstated. It's not merely placing a lens into a frame; it's about ensuring an impeccable fit, optimal vision, and utmost comfort. This diploma covers this intricate process in detail, ensuring that students grasp the subtleties involved. Of course, eyewear, like all items, can sometimes need repairs or modifications. The Frame Repairs and Modifications section teaches how to address common frame issues, ensuring that they regain their original structural integrity and fit. Ensuring the safety of the wearer is paramount. In the section on Lens Materials, Safety, and Sports Eyewear, students learn about the varied materials used in lenses. It covers their properties, benefits, and suitability for different situations, including sports activities. Progressive Addition Lenses (or PALs) have revolutionised the eyewear industry by providing a seamless transition from distance to near vision. The course offers a deep understanding of these lenses, their benefits, and their fitting procedures. Differences in prescription between two eyes can be challenging. Anisometropia, a condition where this difference is significant, can lead to visual discomfort if not addressed correctly. The Ophthalmic Dispensing Diploma sheds light on managing such prescriptions and ensuring the wearer's comfort. Another crucial aspect of lenses is their curvature and thickness. The course dives into the nuances of Lens Curvature and Thickness, ensuring students understand how these factors affect the final visual outcome and comfort of the eyewear. Lastly, the precise measurement of the distance between the pupils (Interpupillary Distance) and determining the blank size are crucial to ensure the eyewear fits perfectly. The course provides extensive guidance on Measuring Interpupillary Distance and Blank Size Determination, ensuring the eyewear is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. To sum up, the Ophthalmic Dispensing Diploma is a meticulously crafted online course that covers every facet of eyewear dispensing. Whether you are a novice looking to step into this world or a professional aiming to hone your skills, this course promises to be an invaluable resource.

The goal of this course is for you to effectively lead and manage people through times of change. Research shows that 70% of change initiatives fail in large organizations. The largest factor contributing to this failure rate is leadership - the inability to plan and lead people through change. In many change situations, tremendous focus is put on strategy, processes, and systems, while the issue of changing people's behavior is assumed it will 'just happen'. In this interactive course, you will learn why the people's side of change is crucial. We will begin by understanding why and how people resist change, and how important it is to become strong and effective change champions. Next, we will focus on critical change management practices - creating our vision of the future state, planning for acceptance in our change audience and stakeholders, mitigating threats, and capitalizing on opportunities. We will use metrics to plan, show progress, and confirm success. Lastly, we will focus on the need to reinforce and sustain change, and to prevent relapse to old ways and methods.

Person Centred Planning: the act of listening to each other creates relationship and strengthening trust and inclusion within the team. If well facilitated In creating a shared vision, groups of people build a sense of commitment together. They develop images of the future they want to create together, along with the values that will be important in getting there and the goals they want to see achieved along the way. Course Category Person Centred Planning Team Building and Leadership Description How to facilitate Person Centred Planning? How is it different from any other kind of meeting or planning? Person Centred working is great – but how exactly is it facilitated? How does it differ from ‘chairing a meeting” What skills and processes enable the group to work together effectively and avoid going off at tangents or dissolving into an unfocussed ‘discussion’ Person Centred Planning: the act of listening to each other creates relationship and strengthening trust and inclusion within the team. If well facilitated In creating a shared vision, groups of people build a sense of commitment together. They develop images of the future they want to create together, along with the values that will be important in getting there and the goals they want to see achieved along the way. Making inclusive action plans using full participation and graphic facilitation Drawing on the planning tools MAPS and PATH (Pearpoint, Forest and OBrien 1997) and other facilitation sources we use both process and graphic facilitation to enable the group to build their picture of what they would love to see happening within their organisation/community in the future and we encourage this to be a positive naming, not just a list of the things they want to avoid. In this training we make this facilitation explicit and attempt to model, teach and enable practice of key skills and processes. Jack Pearpoint, Marsha Forest and John O’Brien developed these innovative PCP approaches in North America and they are being used successfully in many parts of the UK. The planning can focus on an individual, group or organisation and provides a powerful problem solving opportunity, which is flexible and robust enough for many occasions. Tell the story, find the dream, touch the nightmare, and explore who you are, what are the gifts and strengths of the person or group, what are the needs of those present and what is the action plan for the future?
