The IP logbook

You must maintain a logbook of practice evidence to verify that learning outcomes have been achieved. College members can view their IP logbook within their My College area of the website.

If you are not a College member, you can only use the paper version of the logbook below:

You will have to submit your logbook to enter the final examination. The College will carry out an administrative review of your logbook to ensure you have covered a range of conditions in your clinical placement, completed the logbook in sufficient detail and completed the requisite number of sessions.  

Once complete, the paper logbook should be emailed along with your examination application form, available below, to exams@college-optometrists.org. We recommend that you keep a scanned copy of your paper logbook for your records.

Examination fee

You will receive an invoice within the 'Invoices' section of your My College area, once you have applied for the exam. You must pay this to confirm your place on the exam sitting.
