British Columbia Association of Optometrists is a Canadian company. 'The company is based in Vancouver, Canada.

The Optometry Examining Board of Canada (OEBC) is a national not-for-profit corporation established in 1995, composed of the ten provincial optometry regulatory authorities. The private company is located in Canada. Its primary mandate is to develop and administer bilingual, psychometrically valid, and defensible entry-to-practice examinations for optometrists, ensuring consistent assessment of competence nationwide. The OEBC exam consists of a written case-based assessment and an objective structured clinical examination (OSCE), both designed and reviewed by practicing optometrists and psychometricians using recognized standard-setting methods. OEBC also administers an advanced laser and minor procedures exam for certifying optometrists in expanded scopes of practice involving therapeutic injections, minor procedures, and laser treatments. The organization provides resources to candidates, including exam blueprints, study guides, sample cases, AI-supported practice tools, and detailed policies on registration, eligibility, scoring, appeals, accommodations, and exam conduct. OEBC maintains a quality assurance process, including psychometric review of exam items and rescoring procedures upon candidate request. Volunteering opportunities are available for practicing optometrists to contribute as exam developers, examiners, and board members, with recognition programs for service longevity and contributions. Governance is overseen by a board of directors representing each provincial regulatory body.
