REQUIRED MINIMUM POLICY
After launching STEAM PopUp Events, we hosted more than 20 events FREE of charge or WITHOUT attendance restrictions to homeschooling families and the public, after which required minimums were implemented.
What are required minimums? All events, classes, enrichments days, and special events hosted by STEAM Pop-Up Events have required minimums. They are the minimum attendance required to cover an event’s expenses (ex. Cost of venue, materials, teacher’s pay, insurance, etc.) Without required minimums, businesses lose money with each transaction and cannot continue to operate. Any event/class/enrichment service/special event that does not reach the required number of paid registrants must be Cancelled.
What can you do to avoid cancellations? Customers who are interested in courses should register promptly. This allows required minimums to be reached much sooner. Sharing event flyers with other homeschooling families, friends, and groups also helps to ensure that the required minimums are met.
Required minimums for each Event type
Enrichment Days (6 students)
Special Events: defined as events provided to Groups and Organizations (15 students).
Important to Note: Registrations for Courses and Classes will be posted 14-60 days prior to the scheduled Event Date. Registration will close 72 hours prior to the Event Date. If required minimums are NOT met, registrants will be notified via our messaging system of the Cancellation. Refunds will be issued ONLY for cancellations initiated by STEAM POP-UP Events. Refunds nor Transfers will be provided for no-shows.
