Continuing Education Course Live at Vision Expo East

The hugely popular 20/20 Continuing Education course titled “Frame Design and Development: Looking Beyond Logos and Markings” will be taught live at Vision Expo East 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. on Friday March 15. Registration is now open at www.VisionExpoEast.com.

Since the launch of the online educational opportunity, more than 3,200 individuals have successfully completed the course receiving credit from the American Board of Opticianry – more than any other 20/20 Continuing Education course to date.

Mike Hundert, REM Eyewear CEO and Chief Creative Officer collaborated with Nico Roseillier, REM Eyewear Creative Director, to design the course so participants have the opportunity to explore today’s eyewear manufacturing dynamics.  From country of origin to methods and materials, students gain a better understanding of how to evaluate eyewear and best describe quality to patients.

Hundert offers students an in-depth view of manufacturing, acquired through three decades of hands-on experience working with factories around the world.  Course participants benefit from Hundert’s wisdom, gaining knowledge usually only accessible with a passport and years of meticulous research.

Roseillier lends his expertise in designing on-brand collection concepts and demonstrates examples from such eyewear brands as acclaimed designer John Varvatos and American classic Converse.  From inception to creation, Roseillier guides students through his process giving a behind-the-scenes look at what happens when creativity and engineering collide.

REM Eyewear is known for quality so it comes as no surprise that both men focus on quality from beginning to end.

 “Quality is at the heart of every decision we make at our Los Angeles headquarters and that mindset carries through the manufacturing process. Students of the course will walk away with tips for identifying markers of quality and the best way to communicate that quality to the end consumer,” said Hundert.

For those who can’t make it to Vision Expo East, the course is available for one CE credit online, at no cost - thanks to a grant from REM Eyewear, until October 2013. Visit www.2020Mag.com/CE to register.
