Vacant Board Positions
The Opticians Association of Virginia is seeking passionate licensed opticians to join our leadership team as Regional Directors. Regional Directors are appointed for two-year terms during the annual spring meeting in election years. In this vital role, Regional Directors act as liaisons between opticians and the Board of Directors, fostering communication and collaboration within the profession.
​
Board members must hold a valid optician's license and be in good standing with both the State and the Association. If you are committed to advancing the profession and supporting the optical community, we encourage you to apply for an open board position.
