How soon should I register for a course?
Registrations are taken on a first-come, first-served basis. You may register for a course any time up until the day of the course. It is recommended that you register for the course as soon as possible up to a minimum of three days before the course is scheduled to take place. If you register early you will have a better chance of getting a seat. Please note, if there are not enough registrations for a course it may have to cancelled.
What is your policy if I cancel the course?
Please Note: Some courses have refund policies that replace the general refund policy (see specific course descriptions for more details).
If you cancel your registration two business days or more prior to the course start date:
- Refunds in the full amount of the course will be issued.

What is your policy if you cancel the course?
