Member Benefits

Thank you for your interest in the National Academy of Opticianry.  We'd like you to know that our primary mission is to: “provide quality education and training to ALL opticians”. 

Simply through membership, our Academy members make it possible for us to create and distribute education and training to all opticians – members and non-members alike!  So, in order to show our appreciation to our members, we provide that same quality education and training to you at steeply discounted “members-only” pricing!  Here are some examples of the money members are saving:

  • Reference publications at a 45% savings
  • Continuing Education Courses at a 35% savings
  • Sales on books and CEC’s, cutting member-only discounts even deeper to a 50% savings
  • Educational seminars with a total of 80 continuing education hours at a 60% savings

Although the Academy’s primary objective is to provide training and education, we can’t help show our appreciation to our members by offering “members-only” services and benefits

  • Availability to affordable health insurance for small businesses and individuals
  • NAO’s No-fee credit card that earns points for every dollar spent
  • Professional financial, technical and legal advice as well as Hassle-Free CEC’s in  the Academy’s Newsletter
  • Discounted CEs, Club Vision Lounge privileges (free lunches and breakfasts) and NAO negotiated room rates at our Annual Meeting at Treasure Island Hotel in conjunction with VisionExpo West
  • Avis and Hertz car rental discounts
  • Free subscriptions to 20/20 Magazine – a $260 value annually
  • Free job-bank to post open positions as well as your professional availability at www.nao.org

Truly, NAO Membership doesn’t cost… it pays!
