Cancellation Policy:
Project CARE reserves training sites and trainers far in advance. The total numbers of registrants are used to plan the day’s accommodations. Therefore, registration, with or without advanced payment, is considered a commitment to attend. Refunds will be made to those who request them, in writing (e-mail is acceptable), at least 10 days prior to the training session, but Project CARE will deduct a 15% administrative fee. Participants will be charged the full fee for failing to attend the training session for cancellations made fewer than 10 days prior to the scheduled program. Registrants may send a substitute participant at any time prior to the training at no extra cost. Refunds will not be given for “no shows”.
