How do I sign up to attend my classes?

Please understand that seating is limited.

    If you know in advance that you cannot make it for a day you scheduled, let the mentor know. IF something occurs last minute and you cannot attend, call the school at 509-328-8077 (extension 0); either let the front desk know you cannot attend, or leave a message. The more advance notice you give us, the more we have the flexibility to allow another person to attend.

I signed up for a one-day class, what happens if I do not get done in one day?

  • One-Day Class
    Since this is a mentored learning environment, you may find you cannot complete the class in one day We do not want to rush you; our goal is to make sure you gain the knowledge you need.

Why did they ask me to bring a thumb/flash drive?

  • Flash Drive
    Each class you take with us has exercise files to go along with your training. If you want, you may take these exercise files with you for future use/reference. These exercise files along with your book will be excellent resources.

Is there any after-class support when I complete my class?

    Check with the mentor if you are interested in some other resources for the class you are taking.

May I come back and repeat a class?
