WHY GOOD COURSES GET CANCELLED Nothing ends a good course faster than everyone leaving it to the last minute to register. There is a point when the program staff check (usually one week prior to start date) the class registration. If there are not enough people registered, the class has to be cancelled. So, please register early!

CLASS SIZE Safety, quality and cost are the prime considerations when determining class size.
