How many of you are aware that BOC has offered certification to all state licensed O&P providers?

Thus now that a BOC credential is convertible to an ABC credential, every uncredentialed practicitioner grandfathered into state licensure has a simple and quick pathway to an ABC credential. I’m not sure that this actually applies to very many individuals but the whole idea certainly is irritating.
