Frequently asked questions

Where can I park?

There is no parking provided on-site. Attendees are encouraged to park at the downtown library parking garage for the day to avoid a parking ticket! Replenishing a 2-hour MAX parking meter does not prevent a ticket.

What should I bring?

Attendees need to bring their own water bottle, snack(s), and lunch.

Can I get a refund?

Refund Policy: 48-hours notification before the course is required to be eligible for a refund. We will discuss alternatives if a refund is requested after the 48-hour mark.

Is there a required number of attendees to run the course?

Yes! This course requires a minimum of 8 attendees to run. If you register for the course, please ensure that you complete the online portion and show up the day of the course. If there are fewer than 8 people registered, the organizer will advise and reschedule.
