The Academy's Education Distribution Project provides educational materials to ophthalmology training programs in developing countries. Each year the Academy sends materials to programs around the world, including over 100 Basic and Clinical Science Course (BCSC) sets, sent in partnership with the International Council of Ophthalmology.
Due to the large number of ophthalmic training programs and the limited supply of materials, the Academy attempts to send a new Basic and Clinical Science Course set to each program every four to five years.
If you would like to have your ophthalmic training program considered for future mailings, please complete the electronic Material Request Form. Email outreach@aao.org if you have questions. Note that we are not able to guarantee shipments.
