CLASS TRANSFERS & CANCELLATIONS
Plan Ahead – Trip/Event Insurance
If losing the class fees would cause financial hardship, we strongly recommend that you invest in event ticket/trip insurance to protect your investment.
The School does not provide this, but many sources are available online. We encourage you to consider obtaining this at the time of registration.
Cancellations
We understand that cancellations are often the result of difficult circumstances, but the income from classes is used to pay staff, keep the lights on, purchase lumber, cover the cost of instructors, etc. We completely empathize, but unlike large corporations, we run on a tighter margin, and the cancellation policy protects the School. This is why we strongly advocate that if the loss of tuition would cause you financial hardship, you purchase event ticket/trip insurance. The School does not provide this, but many sources are available online. We encourage you to consider obtaining this at the time of registration.
