Welcome to Early Career Optometrists Qld/NT
The ECO group representing Qld/NT supports the professional development of recent optometry graduates. Since its early days, the group has strengthened in membership and continued to expand the range of services it offers to its local ECOs.
Central to the Qld/NT ECOs charter is to develop and deliver a range of education seminars on clinical, practice or employment related content as well as organising gatherings that encourage networking and socialising amongst like-minded young optometrists.
Follow us on Instagram to discover news, information and discussions on a variety of topics as well as upcoming events.

We are particularly looking for recent graduate members and those in rural locations.
