Attendance

Regular attendance throughout the semester is required for success. You must attend the first two classes of the semester or contact your teacher with a valid reason for your absence. If you are absent for the first two classes without contacting your teacher, you will be withdrawn to make room for students on the waitlist.

General Course Info

Each class includes a scheduled 15 minute break. If a classroom section has filled, you can be placed on a waiting list. Phone 403-777-7200 for information. Times, dates and locations are subject to change.
