Mentoring Program
Workshop Policy Workshop charges will be $10.00 per hour for non-members;$7.50 per hour for members; and $5.00 per hour for students. These rates are based on the attendee preregistering and paying for the Workshop in advance. There will be a $5.00 surcharge for "walk-ins" the day of the Workshop. In the event we do not have five participants preregistered for Workshop one week prior to the Workshop, we will cancel the Workshop for lack of attendance and refund the registration fee to those few who had preregistered. In the event someone preregisters for a workshop and then cancels at least 3 days prior to the workshop, refunds will not be made, however, we will issue credits for use at future workshops . If 3 days notice is not given, no refunds of any kind will be issued.
