Minimum enrollment:

All trainings require a minimum number of registrants in order to proceed.  The number for each class depends on the class format and the requirements of the instructors.  All MCPA trainings will be evaluated 10 days prior to the training date to determine if there are sufficient registrations to proceed.  If registration is not sufficient, the class will be canceled or rescheduled, all registrants will be notified, and each person can choose to receive a full refund or to apply their payment to a future class.

Cancellation policy:
When registrations are canceled for MCPA training events, the following refund policies will apply:

  • Cancellations requested two weeks to one month prior to the start of the event will receive a 50% refund.
  • Cancellations requested less than two weeks prior to the start of the event will not be refunded.

Refunds will be issued by check.  

There is one alternative to canceling a registration:

  • Agencies may opt to substitute a different attendee for the person who originally registered for no additional fee and should notify MCPA of the change prior to the class so POST credit can be properly assigned.
