Planning, Scheduling and Registration
Most classes are scheduled a week or two in advance. If you’re in a hurry we can conduct a class on short notice (24-48 hrs.) It is nice to have everyones name as it appears on their Drivers Licenses in advance so we can print certificates the evening before. If you have to cancel a class please do so as early as possible. When a date is scheduled it is no longer available to anyone
