Abstract
As of 1 July 1994 a mandatory continuing professional education (CPE) requirement was instituted for membership of the AOA. I outline some of the arguments that have led to the development of this requirement and compare optometric CPE with that of other professions which also impose a mandatory requirement. I endeavour to discuss these issues in the light of what they mean to the practitioner. (Clin Exp Optom 1995; 78:4:138–143) Copyright © 1995, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
