I am registered for a class tomorrow that I won't be able to attend. Is there anything I can do so my department's budget won't be charged?
Departments may substitute staff only at the discretion of the training coordinator. Staff substituted must be in a similar position, have the same objectives for attending, and be otherwise eligible.

What if I have to arrive late or leave early?
The university's normal business hours are 8:30 am - 5:00 pm. Training is conducted between the hours of 9:00 am and 4:00 pm (unless otherwise stated in the catalogue). Please plan to arrive by 8:30 am to allow sufficient time to: find a parking space, meet the instructor and your fellow students, clear your mind and prepare for learning, receive your course materials, and enjoy a continental breakfast. Plan for mid-morning and mid-afternoon breaks, to have an hour free for lunch, and for the course to run its full, allotted time. Due to the disruption to the class and to the learning experiences of other attendees, participants who arrive late (in the morning or after lunch) will not be allowed to enter courses that are already in progress. Leaving classes early means that you will not have the opportunity to gain all of the learning outcomes that were intended for the course. Arriving late or leaving early on your part will result in your department being charged for the cost of the full day of training. We design each of these training experiences to be a learning-filled day, and we ask that you plan your day to make the most of it!
