ETOP describes itself as ``the single international conference dedicated
to the exchange of ideas and experiences related to education and training
in optics and photonics.'' Meetings are every two years, and have been at
a wide range of locations around the world. I attended the 2003 meeting in
Tucson, Arizona, which was co-located with the FiO/LS meeting that year. The
high point of ETOP 2003 was hearing Michael Berry for the first time. I
did not attend ETOP 2005 in Marseilles, France, but I was a full
participant in the June, 2007 meeting in Ottawa, Canada, with two talks
and a poster. Papers from these three conference submissions are posted
below. The first is a general overview of the history, layout and
educational philosophy of our Center, while the other two papers describe
projects done by/with our students.
