Essilor Academy Canada’s new
Varilux Xpert certification program
The new Varilux Xpert certification program
from Essilor Academy Canada is designed for
eyecare professionals who want in-depth knowl-
edge of the Varilux brand, specifications and
history in order to be able to demonstrate its value
with confidence and thereby grow their sales.
The online course includes eight hours of classes
divided into three modules: Varilux Classics,
Varilux series and Varilux Specialized, to be
completed in three months.
Very flexible, it easily adapts to the schedule of
eyecare professionals. Participants can activate
the training in one click at the time of their
choice, interrupt it if necessary and resume it
just as easily.
Upon certification, participants master the
technical details and scientific data of all Varilux
products and are more confident that they can
recommend the right Varilux product to
their customers.
“In addition, by becoming a Varilux Xpert,”
explains Martin Lespérance, director-training
& development at Essilor Canada, “the p rofes-
sional can put forward his expertise in visual
health and thus better meet the needs of
consumers who always prefer to do business
with a person who has advanced knowledge of
products and shares it with enthusiasm.”
The Varilux Xpert certification is an addition
to Essilor Academy Canada's training and devel-
opment program. This initiative allows the
company to fulfil its mission of Improving lives
by improving sight, by promoting motivation
and passion into learning, maximizing imple-
mentation and producing rapid results. Nearly
200 eyecare professionals have already joined
the program.
