Refund Policy

Back To Education Home


In booking meeting facilities FAIA must guarantee the number of participants to the hotel and reserve an appropriately-sized room. When students register late, or register and don't attend the class, additional costs associated with changing rooms, overnight shipping of books, and cancellation penalties for classes are incurred, resulting in increased costs for future classes. Any refund or transfer must be resolved within 30 days of the class date, or the funds are lost.
