Cancellation policy

 Refunds may be issued by check or credit card.  

 There are two alternatives 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.
  • The registrant may transfer their registration to the next scheduled offering of the same class, as long as MCPA is notified at least two weeks prior to the start of the original registration’s start date.
