Class Schedule

How to Enroll
Any educator (full or part-time) or support person who is employed by a consortium member institution is eligible to attend our classes.  All participants desiring to attend an Eighth Floor class must enroll through their Advisory Committee Representative. It is as easy as listing the classes you would like to take and sending them to your ACR.

Cancellation Policy
Important!  If you need to withdraw from a class, a notification of at least 2 business days in advance of the class is required.  Consortium member institutions or the student will be billed for “no shows”.
