Course Registration Form

Payment Policy

Payment for Cascade Courses must be received 21 days prior the course’s start date.   You can still register for a course on a space-available-basis up until the first day of class.  If you are unable to pay by 21 days prior, please contact us at cascade@u.washington.edu.  Acceptable forms of payment include:

• Check: Make checks payable to the University of Washington and mail to Cascade Executive Programs, University of Washington, 109 Parrington Hall, Box 353055, Seattle, WA 98195-3055. Please include the names of the participant and course with the check.
• Credit Card: We accept Visa and MasterCard over the phone only. Please call 206.685.0523 after submitting your registration form to pay for your course. A receipt will be mailed to the cardholder within a month of payment.
• Purchase Order Number: If your agency is unable to submit payment until after a service is rendered, we accept purchase order numbers (PO#) as payment. The PO# may be included at the time of your registration, or emailed to cascade@u.washington.edu with the name of the participant, the course name, and the PO# as soon as possible following a registration.

Please note you are still registered for a course and subject to the course cancellation policy even if payment is not received by the deadline.  This includes registrations made less than 21 days prior to the start of the course.

Cancellation & Substitution Policy

Due to the demand for Cascade courses, and the volume of pre-course preparation, Cascade must abide by the following cancellation policy:

• Cancellations must be received in writing and require a written response from Cascade Executive Programs to be in effect.
• More than 21 days prior to a course start date: A registrant may cancel his or her registration and receive a full refund.
• Less than 21 days prior to a course start date: Cancellations will be assessed full tuition.

Also, you may not transfer to a different course or to the next offering of the same course after the cancellation deadline. You can, however, avoid being assessed the cancellation penalty by substituting a candidate at any time prior to the start date of a course. Any
materials received by the canceling participant must be passed to the substitute or an additional fee will be assessed for the provision of additional materials.
If a registrant fails to attend without notification, full tuition is required. Please note that failure to submit payment does not cancel you from the course.

Verification of Attendance Policy

Verification of attendance (or certificate of completion) is based on attendance at all sessions and full participation in study groups, and other activities in the course. The participant is responsible for attending all sessions and completing all course preparation. If more than twenty percent of a course is missed a verification letter will not be awarded.

If you have any questions or need to make corrections on the above information, please contact Cascade Executive Programs at cascade@u.washington.edu or 206.685.0523.
