The following conditions apply:

  – $200 transfer fee.

MISA Cancels a Workshop:

In the event that an instructor cancels, and MISA runs the workshop with an equivalent caliber instructor, no refunds will be issued.

Participants are encouraged to attend the entire class as scheduled. Tuition adjustments won’t be made for late arrivals or early departures.
