However, to receive the four core course package discount, you must complete all four core courses in the same scheduled offering (Fall or Spring).

A: Yes, by registering for all four core courses you receive a discount compared to registering for each course individually. Note, if you register for the four core course package, you will need to complete all four core courses in the same scheduled offering (example Fall or Spring).

Q: What happens if I register for a course, but need to cancel?

A: If you have registered for the core course as part of the four core course package, then you forfeit the fee for that particular course. You can send a replacement participant from your organization. You will then need to register for that core course again at a later date and full course fees will apply.

If you have registered for the core course not as a part of the four core course package, you will receive a full refund if you have given written notice according to the cancellation policy for that course. If you are past the cancellation date, we encourage you to send a replacement as the course fees will not be refunded.
