The Illinois College of Optometry (ICO) is one of the world's leading optometric institutions. With an emphasis on top-notch curriculum, the ICO has earned its popularity through hard work and proven results.

The Challenge

The ICO needed to provide CPR certification to both staff and students. This was no simple task. Things were a bit hectic before ProTrainings arrived on the scene, as described by their Continuing Education Coordinator, Elizabeth Grantner. "Before we used ProTrainings, our faculty had to make arrangements for their own CPR renewal through outside vendors. We also had to schedule several days for our students to renew their certification on campus each year."

The college was ready for a change, so the search for a better solution began.

The Solution

The ICO did their homework. "We looked at several live instruction options before exploring ProTrainings. We also got feedback from our faculty members, and based on that input, we decided that ProTrainings was the best choice, both for our budget and for the convenience of our staff and students. Now that our faculty and students can renew online, it gives them the freedom to do it when it's convenient for them, at home or here on campus," said Elizabeth.

The Results

With ProTrainings' solution implemented, ICO's process to certify staff and students is running without a hitch. Both groups are trained affordably and in a timely manner. The tracking is seamless, reminders are automatic, and staff have been very pleased with the results.
