Policies relative to absences, leaves, and tardiness, make-up work and suspension for unsatisfactory work or attendance and re-entrance conditions:  Attendance is crucial to successful completion of the programs; therefore no more than three absences will be accepted.  For each absence, the student is expected to arrange a make-up session to complete the work that was missed. Three tardies constitute one absence. Students who do not adhere to the policies regarding attendance may be suspended and may only be readmitted upon the director's approval.

Grading System and Reentrance Conditions:  The grading system is a pass/fail system.  Assignments are evaluated after each module. If a student is having trouble in an area, additional help is available. If class work is not completed, the student risks suspension and may only be readmitted upon the director's approval. Once class work and tests have been completed, a certification of completion test is available for each program module. The student must complete all coursework modules and take the respective test for each module.
