Attendance / Competence Policy
Program Requirements
100% attendance is required for certification. Any missed hours must be made up through training sessions. Please note, homework assignments or reading/self-study cannot be used to make up missed training hours.
Attendance Expectations
• Arrive on time and remain present
• Participate fully in practicum
• Complete all assignments
Acceptable Absences
Sometimes, absences are unavoidable due to sickness, family emergencies, or personal events that have been communicated to the lead teacher trainer in advance. In these instances, a student may miss up to 10% of training hours. Beyond 10%, the student will no longer be eligible for certification, and no refund will be available.
ALL missed hours will need to be made up through training sessions at the student’s expense of $30/hour.
Completion Standards
Attendance alone does not guarantee graduation. Competency and professionalism are required.
