Attendance at all scheduled monthly sessions is expected. I understand the time commitment required of me as a participant. If selected, I commit to attending all monthly sessions. I fully understand that should I miss more than two sessions, for whatever reason, I will be dismissed from the program with no portion of my tuition refunded (deferral to the following year may be possible on a case-by-case basis). I will make the necessary arrangements to be at sessions on time and remain in class for the full day. I understand that I am required to work on and complete a group project. This will include meetings and work sessions outside of regular class time. I commit to fully participate in and contribute to this project. I understand that there may be additional meetings or activities outside of the scheduled sessions, such as nonprofit board meetings, project-related calls, or optional office hours. While not all are mandatory, I commit to participating as much as possible to support my learning, my classmates, and my contribution to the program. I will exercise discretion with all information shared during the program, both in sessions and through the nonprofit project, so that participants and hosts feel safe discussing sensitive or challenging topics. Some program sessions will take place at various locations across Chester County, such as nonprofit organizations, universities, or community spaces. I understand that I am responsible for providing my own transportation. * By submitting this application, I confirm that I have read and agree to the commitments listed above.
