Students must be at least 18 years of age and have a minimum of a GED or high school diploma to qualify for acceptance into training. If a student doesnt have a GED or high school diploma, successfully passing all five of the at-home exams will be evidence that understanding of academic material can be accomplished by the student.
Leaves/Vacation: Students are required to attend the entire classroom portion. Therefore a leave will be considered on a case-by-case basis and arrangements to complete material will be made if a leave/vacation is approved.
To make up the missed material, the student can arrange with Devin or Rachel Hastings to attend the portion of the class they missed during the next certification class offered that is convenient to their scheduling needs. Once the missing portion(s) is/are completed, the student will receive certification provided they pass their final exam.
Or, if they wish, they can attend the entire workshop again. Either option the student chooses is free of charge.
If a student is unable to retake the class, a refund will be calculated pursuant to the refund policy.
Absences: Students are required to attend the entire classroom portion. If a student misses a combined total of more than 3 hours of classroom instruction, they will need to make arrangements to attend a future class in which those portions missed are offered before they can receive certification.
