REGISTRATION

All registrations will be processed in the order in which they are received. Please note that your place in a course is only secured with the receipt of your payment. All purchases are final.

CANCELLATION, REFUND, AND PRIVACY POLICY

If Creative Arts Workshop finds it necessary to cancel a class or workshop due to under-enrollment or  an emergency, registered students will be notified via e-mail and tuition will be refunded.

If a program is oversubscribed when a student registers, the student will be given the option to waitlist at no charge, and will be notified if and when space becomes available. Students then have the option to enroll and will not be charged until they are formally registered in the class.

Students who withdraw from a class or workshop 48-hours prior to the first class are eligible for a refund or credit toward another class, less a $25 registration fee.  After that time, no consideration will be given except for medical reasons and with a note from the student’s physician, in which case a credit will be granted for unused classes going forward from the date CAW is notified.

Students who would like to transfer from one class to another after the first class but before the second may do so upon written request to CAW if space is available and any tuition difference is paid; no refunds or credits will be granted. After the second class, no transfers are permitted. No workshops transfers are permitted.

Students missing a regularly scheduled class or workshop will not receive a refund or credit. Makeup classes are at the discretion of the instructor.

Programs not held due to bad weather or instructor’s absence will be rescheduled. Visit www.creativeartsworkshop.org for weather cancellations.

Creative Arts Workshop reserves the right to change its calendar, withdraw, or modify course of instruction or substitute instructors at anytime.

Creative Arts Workshop reserves the right to withdraw any student whose conduct is deemed detrimental  or disruptive to the functioning of the class, or creates an unsafe environment. This extend to, but is not limited to, sexual harassment.

Creative Arts Workshop is committed to your privacy. We will always make sure that any personal information you provide is kept confidential. It will not be sold or shared. Your email address may be used to keep you informed of current and upcoming CAW programs and events.

ACCESSIBILITY

Creative Arts Workshop strives to provide a space that is welcoming and accessible to all.  Creative Arts Workshop’s facility is accessible by ramp.  We have an elevator that serves each of our three floors.  If you have a disability and wish to take a course, please let us know of any accommodations you might have.

CELL PHONES

As a courtesy to instructors and your fellow students, we ask that you silence your cell phone and text message notifications.  If you need to take a call, please step out of the classroom to do so.

COMMUNICATION

Email is our primary means of communication with students. It is your responsibility to keep your email address, phone, and physical address up to date in your account. Your email address is automatically added to our e-newsletter list so you don’t miss important news and updates.
