What is our
registration and cancellation
policy?
Our company policy is to hold the registration period
open until two (2) weeks before the start of the school. This is to minimize the
chance that we will need to cancel or reschedule a school. If enrollment has
insufficient numbers two (2) weeks prior to the course, we reserve the right to
cancel the course. We hope you understand our position and make your travel
plans accordingly, as we cannot be responsible for fees charged for canceling or
changing your travel plans.
Cancellation by the
student within two weeks before the course starts will be charged full tuition
fees. However, as a courtesy, we will allow you to apply your payment toward
any future seminar within one year from the date you cancel. Substitutions are
welcome and names may be changed at any time.
What happens
after registering for a course?
Upon registration, we will email you a copy of the
confirmation letter, maps and directions to the classroom. The original
confirmation letter and invoice will be mailed to you. If you do not receive an
email with a copy of the confirmation letter
within a couple of days of registration, please notify us.

due?
The full fee is due prior to
the start date of the course. The course fees
are invoiced about three (3) months before the first day of class. Payment
is accepted in the form of cash, check, credit card or wire transfer. We accept American Express,
