BLS Update
On Going Reorganized following last year’s International Laser Safety Conference (ILSC®
), the CLSO Review Board and the CMLSO
Review Board are working to strengthen our program. As dictated by our Bylaws, “the purpose of a review board is to establish qualifications required to sit for an exam, determine exam content, and determine certification maintenance criteria for the corresponding certification. All determinations made by a Review Board are to be reported to the Board of Commissioners.”
The CLSO Review Board is revising our CLSO exam to harmonize with the ANSI Z136.1-2014 Safe Use of Lasers standard, while our CMLSO Review Board has been tasked to augment our CMLSO educational study materials.
On the Horizon
The BLS Board of Commissioners (BoC) will be holding its annual meeting via teleconference on May 24, 2016. The BoC functions as the administrative arm of the BLS, managing the general affairs of the corporation, with the day-to-day oversight administered by the BLS Executive Director.
If you are a laser safety officer who wants to be recognized for your knowledge and skills, consider certification through the Board of Laser Safety, visit
www.lasersafety.org or call us at +1.407.985.3810. If you are currently certified and would like to participate more actively in our community, contact Barbara Sams at
bsams@lasersafety.org.
The BoC meets at least once annually. In years that there is an ILSC, the BoC meeting is held in the same location. In off years, the BoC will meet via teleconference if another conducive location is not found. During the meeting, the BoC will elect Commissioners and conduct other business pending before the Board, from approval of the organization’s budget to strategic planning.
Special Thanks Members of the BLS Review Boards and Commissioners all volunteer their time and efforts to keep the BLS smoothly functioning in a positive and successful way. Our volunteers, from board members to the individual CLSO or CMLSO who agrees to proctor an exam, are steadfast in their support to the organization, and for that, we give our heartfelt thanks.
