Attendance:

All students are expected to attend classes on a regular basis.  Daily attendance is required, and is taken by the instructor.  In the event of an absence, the student is responsible to make arrangements to complete any makeup work that may be assigned to them.

If satisfactory arrangements are not made, failing grades may be assigned. Students whom are unable to attend class should notify the school promptly. Students will need to make up any missed classes for the on-site course work with the instructor.  A prearranged absence would be considered an excused absence. An unexcused absence would be when a student does not call to notify the school. Students are expected to maintain a ninety percent (90%) attendance rate. Arriving late or leaving early will be considered a tardy. Three (3) tardies will be considered an absence. We counsel students after three (3) absences and dismiss them after eight (8) absences during the on-site training. Part-time students have the flexibility of open enrollment. They will start and complete the program until their required hours are finished.

Tardiness:

Students are expected to arrive to class on-time and prepared to learn. As tardiness causes the student to miss valuable instruction, and disrupts the class, any student who is tardy to class three (3) times during on-site training will be counseled by the instructor.  Any further tardiness will result in the student being required to make up hours and work missed at a scheduled time agreed upon by the instructor.

Withdrawal:

Students have the option to officially withdraw from the school at any time by giving written notification to the school office. Unofficial withdrawal can take place at such time as the student fails to attend classes and has made no contact with the school administration for thirty (30) days during the distance delivery portion of training. Upon withdrawal, official or unofficial, the school’s refund policy will apply and arrangements must be made to pay any balance due to the school. Students will not be permitted to re-enroll in the school with an outstanding balance. Any monies due to the student at the time of withdrawal, official or unofficial, will be refunded to the student within thirty (30) days of the withdrawal determination.

Withdrawal will also affect a learner with the following situation: A pre-arranged absence would be considered an excused absence. An unexcused absence would be when a student does not call to notify the school. Students are expected to maintain a ninety percent (90%) attendance rate. Arriving late or leaving early will be considered a tardy. Three (3) tardies will be considered an absence. Students will be counseled after three (3) absences and will be dismissed after eight (8) absences during the on-site training.

Readmission:

Students who withdraw from school may apply for readmission. Students must complete a new enrollment contract and will be charged current tuition and fees at the time of readmission. Students dismissed for academic or disciplinary reasons must meet with the School Administrator for approval of readmission.  Then, our student must put in writing their reasons for readmission. Any student with a past due balance will not be readmitted to the school.

Leave of Absence:

No leave of absence will be granted. 

Complaints and Grievance Policy:

CB Healing Institute is dedicated to the success and well being of each student, staff member, and teacher. Most complaints can be resolved in an informal manner. In the event that dissatisfaction arises, interested parties are expected to refer their complaints to the School Administrator or School President, in writing, to be resolved. A school representative will meet with the complainant within ten (10) days of receipt of the written complaint.

Should a complaint not be handled in a satisfactory manner, the complaint will be referred to a complaint committee consisting of the School President, a staff member, and an independent third party. This committee will meet within twenty-one (21) calendar days of receipt of the complaint. Any and all discussions and meetings will be documented and a copy provided to the complainant at the time of the meeting.

If more information from the complainant is needed, a letter will be written outlining the additional information. If no further information is needed the complaint committee will act on the allegations and a letter will be sent to the complainant within fifteen (15) days stating the steps taken to correct the problem, or information to show that the allegation/s were not warranted or based on fact.

Should a complaint not be handled in a satisfactory manner, any student, staff member, or teacher may contact the Alaska Commission on Postsecondary Education.

Student Housing:

CB Healing Institute does not offer on-site housing for its students. There are many hotels, motels, and apartments conveniently located to the school. Our office maintains a list of available locations that may be suitable for out-of-town students. We will gladly assist you in locating a place to stay while attending our school.

Credit for Previous Experience or Training:

Credit may be granted for training from another state, country, or school. Documentation providing proof of verifying work or school experience must be submitted prior to enrollment. Written practices tests will be given to the applicant provided that they are properly registered at the school. The Administrator will then give the tests and determine what credit should be given.

Records will not be released without the written consent of the student. A student will be notified whenever a court subpoenas the records in which case, written consent is not required. The parent of a dependent student has the right to inspect records that are maintained by the school on behalf of the pupil.
