On-Site Training Policies & Guidelines - at a SAS training center
Please read and follow the following guidelines below to ensure an optimal service experience.
Enrollment
A course description is provided to you for distribution to potential attendees. We strongly recommend that only those who have the appropriate
prerequisite skills participate in the course.
Three weeks before scheduled training, you will be contacted to see if more than 15 students will be attending. An additional fee of $180 per student per
day for more than 15 students will be charged. For Six Sigma courses, the additional fee per student, per day for more than 15 students is $225. Training
will be limited to the number of seats available in a particular facility, with a maximum of 20 students unless otherwise mutually agreed upon.
(Exceptions: Some courses are limited to 15 students. Check with your Education Account Representative for details.).
SAS training center fee
There is an additional $500 per day fee at one of our Regional Training Centers. The fee to present your on-site class at one of
our third-party training facilities varies by location. Ask your Education Sales Representative for exact pricing. We will provide
a continental breakfast and afternoon snack. You are responsible for your own lunch.
Class roster requirements
A class roster is required for security purposes two weeks prior to the class start date. If requested, diplomas can be sent to you after the training as
long as you have provided all pertinent student information.
Course materials
We will provide one copy of course materials for each attendee. Please note that all training materials are copyrighted and duplication is not permitted.
Course hours
Standard course hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily, with 15-minute breaks in the morning and afternoon and one hour for lunch. The last day of training
ends at 4 p.m. If this does not fit your normal work schedule, please notify your Education Account Representative to make any necessary changes.
Purchase orders
Payment by purchase orders will be accepted as an administrative convenience. Terms and conditions not agreed to in writing and signed on behalf of SAS do
not apply.
Nondisclosure
We must receive any nondisclosure documents three weeks prior to any service. No training provider has the authority to sign a nondisclosure agreement on
SAS' behalf upon arrival for training.
Expenses
Travel expenses for SAS staff are additional. Expenses include round-trip coach airfare, rental car including gas or local transportation, hotel and per
diem meal expenses. Per diem is based on the Runzheimer Meal Lodging Cost Index.
Cancellation policy
You must cancel no later than 21 days before the scheduled training start date to avoid a 25% cancellation penalty (25% of the published applicable fee).
To cancel, you should call your Education Account Representative. We will work on a best-effort basis to schedule alternative dates. Rescheduling
training less than 21 days prior to the original start date is considered a cancellation of training, and the 25% penalty will be charged. In addition,
please note that if non-refundable airline tickets have been purchased at your request for SAS staff, your organization will be responsible for these
expenses.
Recording devices
With the exception of accommodations made for disabled students, SAS strictly prohibits the use of audio or video recording devices during training
sessions.
