Refund Policy

It is our intention that you will receive significant value from this training. The final day to withdraw from the training for any reason and receive a full refund minus a non-refundable deposit of $250 is December 27, 2024. If you decide to withdraw after December 27, 2024, you are still fully responsible for making all payments, and no refunds will be provided.

Missed Training

This is not a casual or self-paced teacher training course but a highly interactive one that requires your full participation and presence to be successful.

Live Sessions:
You are highly encouraged to attend all sessions live and to notify us if you need the session recording if you cannot make it. Unless we grant you an exception, you can only miss up to 10 live sessions and may not miss two full weekends in a row.

To stay on track with the training and participate fully in Small Groups, you’ll need to watch the session recording as soon as possible (ideally within 72 hours) and notify us if you need additional clarification or support.

Small Groups:
You will only be permitted to miss up to 1 small group meeting and will be expected to watch the session recording and complete additional homework to ensure comprehension.

Any additional sessions missed will jeopardize your ability to graduate, cost you additional money to reimburse teachers for their time at a rate of $100/hr, or both.
