Cancellation and Withdrawal Policy

The Continuing interProfessional Development and Innovation department at the UNMC College of Nursing is committed to providing a valuable educational experience.

This policy outlines the terms and conditions for cancellation and withdrawal from our programs.

Cancellation by Participant

  • Notice Requirement: To receive a refund, cancellation requests must be submitted in writing to the our office before the specified deadline, typically 30 days before the activity's start date unless otherwise noted.
  • Processing Fee: All cancellations are subject to a non-refundable processing fee, which will be detailed in the specific activity's registration information.
  • Refund Eligibility: Refunds will be issued (less the processing fee) if the cancellation request is received before the specified deadline. No refunds will be granted after this deadline.
  • Special Circumstances: In cases of emergency or unforeseen circumstances, our office may consider exceptions to the refund policy on a case-by-case basis. Documentation may be required.

Withdrawal by Participant

  • Withdrawal Procedure: Participants wishing to withdraw from a course or activity after it has begun must notify the our office in writing.
  • Refunds for Withdrawal: Withdrawals after the start of the activity are generally not eligible for a refund. Exceptions may be made for significant reasons, such as a medical emergency, with appropriate documentation.
  • Impact on Certification: Withdrawing from a course may affect your eligibility for certification or continuing education credits. It is the participant’s responsibility to understand these consequences before withdrawing.
