Policies & Procedures

All assignments must be submitted/posted by 23:55 (11:55 pm) Pacific Time on the due date, unless otherwise indicated. Details for the submission process are found on each assignment.

Late assignments will not be accepted.

Registrants must attend all virtual classes, and successfully complete all assignments and the final exam.

Permittee Logbook Holders must remain in Good Standing for the duration of the course. If you are suspended during the course, you will not be allowed to continue and will be required to register for the course again.

Attendance

Attendance is mandatory for the virtual classes. We consider Zoom classes the same as in-person classes, therefore, your video must be on and you must be visible during the full duration of the course. If something occurs during the class and you are not able to keep your camera on, we will consider you as having left the class, and the Missed Days policy will apply.

Late Policy

Any attendee who is more than 15 minutes late will not be allowed to attend the class and must re-schedule the next time the course is offered. Please take into consideration the time it takes to log in to Zoom and to set up your microphone and video camera. If you arrive more than 15 minutes late, you will be considered a “no show” and you will not receive a refund or credit for the course.

 

Exams, Quizzes, Assignments

All online exams, quizzes and assignments are open book (i.e. you can refer to your notes and course materials). However, be aware that there are time limits for exams and quizzes which will prohibit you from looking up the correct answer to each question. Your submitted assignments and responses on exams and quizzes must be a true representation of your own learning and knowledge.
