Read what a few newly qualified optometrists have to say about their experience of STEP® after qualification.

 

STEP® has been such a fantastic support throughout the duration of my pre-registration studies. In particular, from Stage 2 preparation onwards, the classes and workshops that were organised online were a great help and really increased my confidence going into the assessments.
