CLASS SCHEDULING FORMAT
In order to
offer you more flexibility in taking the courses you want, we
have changed our approach to scheduling. Instead of
requiring students to start on a certain date and continue for a
given number of weeks, you may now start most courses any
week and finish at your own pace.
While we
recognize the advantage of week to week attendance, we also know
that "things happen" to cause you to miss a class or two. There
will be no penalty for missing and you will be entitled to
attend the number of classes in your course in order to complete
your project.
We are also
geared up to offer most of our courses
during most of our class times. For example, our Introduction Course (3 Classes)
may be taken Monday's at 10 AM or 6 PM, &
Saturdays at 9:00AM. Generally, when you register for a course
you will attend that same time and day for the course duration.
Make ups and changes are allowed based on our schedule.
We hope this
flexibility is to your liking. We still ask that you pre-pay
your tuition when you register, and be reminded that all
students are expected to bring their tools to all classes.
In most classes students are also responsible for all materials
used for their projects. If you have any questions as to what
materials are required, please raise them prior to the first
class or check out the class descriptions on our web site. We do
also rent tools for $25 that can be used for the duration of
this class.
So plan to register for your favorite time
slot featuring a class that you want to take. As always, class
sizes are limited so give us a call today. Scroll down for
all class descriptions.
