Connect with Hailey Schmitt, PECAA Territory Account Manager, at the 2025 GWCO Congress!
GWCO Congress was developed to provide an educational venue for the optometric professional in GWCO member states to come together and receive high-quality, multi-track optometric education. As a way to encourage participation of members and state leaders, net profits from the annual congress are returned to the GWCO states based on an attendance formula.
