Refund Policy
Course will run with minimum 4 students signing up. 10 maximum. If course does not run, 100% of fees refunded. Cancellation after January 15, no refund if your cancellation causes numbers to drop below 4 in total. 50% refund otherwise. Refund processed after classes start. We will communicate with you as sign-up windows close regarding number of sign-ups.
Call 503-552-8813 if you are NOT 18+ but hope to be cleared to register for class. We understand business people sometimes have work commitments that cause them to miss class. Many students end up missing 1 or 2 classes because of work commitments. We price these classes affordably to take this into consideration. We do not give refunds because “work became busy”.
