Upload your images here:

Facilitators must submit a program request at least six weeks before the proposed start date to allow sufficient time for promotion. The application requires at least one high resolution image that represents your offering. You may also include a second image and a photo of you.

Proposals will be reviewed by the program committee within 7 days of submission. You will be notified of their response soon after.

If the program is approved, facilitators will receive a draft of the website post before publication to verify accuracy. Once the website post is approved by the facilitator and posted, changes cannot be made. As independent contractors, facilitators share responsibility for promoting their program. OHCA will send at least one, typically three or more, email announcements to over 3,000 subscribers.

Facilitators may create and put flyers for their workshops in the LOFT.

Facilitators unfamiliar with LOFT (workshop space) access, must schedule an appointment with the office for an orientation on entry procedures, sign-in sheets, heating, cooling, and other essentials.

Facilitators must contact the OHCA office three days before their workshop to confirm enrollment and receive a participant list. If enrollment falls below the agreed minimum, facilitators may cancel the class. No payment will be issued if the class is canceled, and all registration fees will be refunded.

Facilitators are expected to email enrolled participants at least two days before the program start date to provide a welcome message, materials list, payment details (if applicable), and lunch break reminders.

Sign-in Requirement: All workshop participants must sign in. Payments to facilitator is based on sign-in records, and missing forms will result in payment delays or inaccuracies.
