Attendance Policy
Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each class meeting, capturing students’ name, date and time of arrival and departure. Students are expected to attend all class meeting, as their attendance and participation is vital. Full credit will be earned for perfect attendance. Participation will be evaluated based on student’s engagement in the class, contribution to class discussions, evidence of having completed the readings and maintaining a positive attitude. It is crucial for students to arrive to class on time and be prepared. With class being short, the student is only allowed to miss 1 class. Please contact the instructor for make up or catch-up work.
Tardiness
Three (3) consistence of tardiness or early leave will count as one absence. The allotted time for tardiness is after 15 minutes of the class start time and 30 minutes before class ends.
Makeup Work
In the event of an absence, it is the students’ responsibility to meet with the instructor and/or Program Director to arrange ways to make up the hours and assignments that were missed. Low County Medical Training Center offers many days throughout the program that simply cannot be missed, and this work might have to be made up in the next available class section (the student will be allowed to enter the next session to make up the work only one time before additional fees are accessed – not to exceed more than three occurrences). Make up work must be submitted to instructor within 72 hours.
