Really? It stupid that it takes more to be a interior designer than it does a optrician or a personal trainer combined.

The description I just read of an optician states that most will have an AA degree, so it must just be Florida being crazy with lax requirements in this case. ~ Many opticians go to college for a two-year associate’s degree in opticianry, which involves coursework in basic anatomy, eye anatomy, algebra and trigonometry, optical physics and mathematics and administration. They also learn about precision measuring equipment and techniques and optical instrumentation. More advanced studies include classes on fitting contact lens and vision prosthetics. Whether opticians study at a community college or university, it is recommended that students choose an opticianry program that is accredited by the Commission on Opticianry Accreditation, a nationally recognized professional board. Prospective opticians who take the apprenticeship path are required to undergo a two- to four-year period of on-the-job training under the supervision of a licensed optician. Licensing and/or Certification Licensing and certification requirements for dispensing opticians vary from state to state. State licenses are issued after successful completion of a practical or written examination and some states may require both. State eligibility requirements for sitting for opticianry exams also vary. Some states require applicants to have an associate’s degree or an apprenticeship of two to four years. In addition, opticians can qualify for voluntary certification by two nationally recognized professional organizations: American Board of Opticianry (ABO) National Contact Lens Examiners (NCLE) http://www.innerbody.com/careers-in-health/how-to-become-an-optician.html
