ONLC Class Registration & Policies

 

GENERAL INFORMATION

CLASS FORMATS

Live, online instructor-led classes
LIVE, INSTRUCTOR-LED TRAINING CLASSES

OPTION 1 - Learn From Your Own Location
Take our live, online instructor-led classes from your own location with your own equipment to save on travel time and expense. See setup.

OPTION 2 - Learn at an ONLC Training Center
Take our live, online instructor-led classes from any ONLC center. We have centers coast-to-coast. Our centers are outfitted with computer equipment and provide an interruption-free space to concentrate fully on learning. See ONLC locations.


WITH BOTH OPTIONS...
No matter what location you choose, classes are live with an online instructor. Training is fully interactive and hands-on.* Attendees can interact with the instructor who is leading the class and supporting participants throughout. Ask questions, participate in class discussions and gain insight from the Q&As!

(* Classes related to concepts and processes rather than specific software are commonly more lecture and discussion oriented.)

 

Group Training in-person or online
GROUP TRAINING: Instructor-led Onsite or Online

Our Group Training solutions can save both time and money upskilling a team, department, division or company. Options can include our public and private solutions, lectures, self-study and more. Training can be delivered online or at your location (onsite) . With private training, content can be customized to meet specific learning objectives, technologies, schedules and budgets. See group training to request a price quote.

 

On-Demand, self-study courses
ON-DEMAND COURSES: Self-study | eLearning

On-Demand courses are self-study, self-paced training you take using your own equipment from your own location. "On-Demand" will be in the course title to indicate this learning format. These eLearning courses may include video tutorials, live labs and assessments. Once purchased, you'll have 24/7 access typically for multiple months to your self-study course (durations vary by title so this information is listed on the course outline).

CLASS TIMES

Instructor-led classes on our public schedule range from 1 to 5 days in duration and are held weekdays. Class times are based on the location time zone and are typically:

10:00am - 4:45pm Eastern
9:00am - 3:45pm Central
8:00am - 2:45pm Mountain
7:00am - 1:45pm Pacific

NOTE: Some classes may start earlier or have longer class times. Class hours can be viewed on the course outline page and will be in the confirmation email after registering.

TIP: On the course outline page, view class times by resting your cursor on the class date (computer) or by touching the underlined date (mobile device).

 

CLASS SIZE / NUMBER OF ATTENDEES

Instructor-led classes are typically limited to 12 students nationwide with enrollments a combination of those attending from home and ONLC centers. Though we could greatly exceed that enrollment total for most classes, we keep class sizes small to ensure for individual attention from the instructor.

Attending from an ONLC center? See our COVID Health & Safety Policy.

Helpful Class Indicators

On a course outline page you may see some of these icons. Here's what they mean:

Green Flag = Ready to Run = Class is "Ready to Run" on the date(s) indicated.
       Class is expected to run provided any registered students do not elect to reschedule or cancel.

Yellow Flag = nearing green flag status = Class is approaching Ready to Run status.
       These classes have an excellent chance of reaching "Ready to Run" status.

Clock = late registration fee may apply = Late Registration Fee May Apply.
       If you register within 5 days of a class, you will incur a late registration fee. This fee covers our increased costs to express ship books, late computer provisioning, etc. The fee varies by course.

Last Date = Final Chance to Register, but does not guarantee availability.
       The date listed to the right of that line is the absolute last day ONLC will entertain a registration for this class date, and then only if a seat is available AND space at the requested location.

REGISTRATION / PAYMENT

 

ONLC is a B2B PROVIDER

ONLC is a business-to-business (B2B) training provider. A handful of states prohibit their citizens who are paying for training personally (using your own money rather than paid by a business or employer) from attending our instructor-led classes within that same state. There are no restrictions on individuals whose employer or business is paying for the training, or for those purchasing On-Demand courses.

If you are in the first category of student and in a state that restricts private citizens we are required to decline your registration.

CLASS BREAKS: Most instructors will have a short break in the morning and another in the afternoon so students can stretch, use restrooms and so on. Additionally, there will be a slightly longer break for lunch. ONLC does not provide lunch.

spacer

ATTIRE: Those attending class at an ONLC center are invited to dress casually and comfortably. We want your focus on learning.

spacer

SKILLS & DECORUM: Prerequisites are listed on our course outlines for students to assess their suitability for a class. Additionally, ONLC’s advisors may be able to help you determine an appropriate level. Should a student be lacking the prerequisite skills for class or fail to maintain a professional demeanor in class, ONLC may exercise the following options:

  • Restricted Participation
    Should an instructor find a student lacks the class prerequisite skills, is slowing down the overall pace of the class, distracting the class with topics outside of the scope of the class and level, the instructor can require that student continue with Restricted Participation status.

    Restricted Participation students may either remain in class doing the hands-on labs to the best of one's ability without asking questions or receiving assistance from the instructor, or may leave the class.

    Restricted Participation
    students who complete their original class may repeat the class at no additional charge once they have learned the necessary prerequisite skills using our Make-up Policy. You will need to use your original course materials as no new materials will be issued.

  • Right of Dismissal
    In order to maintain a classroom environment that is conducive to learning for all attendees, ONLC Training Centers reserves the right to dismiss a participant who is harassing other participants, the instructor, or who in ONLC's judgment acts inappropriately or disruptively from the class and our premises.

 

NOTE: In the case of dismissal or choice by a Restricted Participation student to leave class at the time of status change, ONLC Training Centers’ liability will be limited to a refund of the class fee already paid by the participant/participant's organization. ONLC shall not be responsible for any consequential loss or inconvenience arising from the adjusted status.

AFTER CLASS / CERTIFICATE / RECEIPT


Course Certificate - Instructor-led Classes

ONLC provides a Certificate of Completion once your full attendance in an instructor-led class is confirmed. Certificates of Completion are sent via email to the e-address on the registration record. Certificates are provided as a .pdf so you have a digital record to print as needed. Allow up to a week following your class for receipt (see below exception).


Course Certificate Exceptions:

As of January 01, 2020, training centers are NOT allowed to issue a certificate of completion for ITIL classes per AXELOS guidelines. ONLC is permitted to issue a letter confirming course attendance only. Students who have attended ITIL training at ONLC in need of said letter should request ITIL attendance letter via email.

spacer

Copy of an Invoice/Receipt
Invoices and receipts are automatically generated and sent to the e-address provided on the registration.

If you need a copy of an invoice or receipt for which you registered directly with ONLC, you can obtain it here: get invoice/receipt. You need to enter the student's name exactly as provided at the time of registration PLUS zip code. After clicking OK you should see either:

  • Invoice if payment has not yet been received/charged.
  • Receipt once payment has been processed by ONLC.
    (Though we may have your credit card information, ONLC does not charge credit cards until three business days before class unless otherwise requested by the client.)

Invoices/receipts are available for up to one month from the date of the class.

CANCELLATION / RESCHEDULE / SUBSTITUTION


CANCELLATION / POSTPONEMENT BY ONLC

In the event ONLC needs to cancel an instructor-led class because the class date has not met minimum enrollment (determined 2-3 weeks prior), or postpone a class due to circumstances beyond our control, registered students will be notified as quickly as possible. In such cases, the student may choose to reschedule to a future class date at no additional charge, or cancel with refund if any money is on account for that specific registration.

spacer

CANCELLATION / RESCHEDULE REQUESTED BY STUDENT
Because we must assign instructors and provision computer resources in advance and possibly schedule training rooms and ship course materials, it is important students alert us ASAP with any cancel/reschedule requests to avoid penalties or restrictions. Please note the following policies:


If requested 15 or More Calendar Days before the Class

Student cancellation or reschedule requests received 15 calendar days or more before the class starts will be processed promptly.

  • Cancellation requests made in this timeframe are eligible for refund of money on account for this specific registration.

  • Reschedule requests made in this timeframe will be accommodated if availability exists and will be processed at no additional charge.


If requested 14 Calendar Days or Less before the Class

For most titles but not all (see exceptions below), cancellation or reschedule requests made by the student 14 calendar days or less before the class starts will be charged 100% the course fee and are not entitled to a refund.

  • The student has one (1) opportunity to use our Make-Up policy to have those funds applied to a later class date.

  • Students requesting to change just their class location between eight (8) and fourteen (14) days prior to the class MIGHT be possible if ONLC has availability, but may be subject to an additional charge for provisions re-routing. ONLC cannot accommodate location change requests made seven (7) days or less before the class start.


Exceptions:

State Government: Individuals in programs directed by the State government will be subject to the cancellation policies dictated by that state. See your respective state enrollment application for details.

Cisco classes: Cancellation and reschedule requests made 14 days or fewer before the start of any Cisco class are NOT permitted. Funds will be forfeited and rescheduling is not allowed.

spacer

SUBSTITUTIONS
If you are unable to attend your class, a substitute who meets the course prerequisites may attend in your place at no additional charge for the original class title, date and location. If you cannot find a substitute, you will be subject to the class cancellation policy.

spacer

ONLC's MAKE-UP POLICY
For regularly scheduled, instructor-led, public classes taught by ONLC with the exceptions of below, students are permitted one (1) Make-Up opportunity to attend an instructor-led class that was paid for but not previously attended for no additional charge.

  • Make-Up class registrations are subject to availability and are not entitled to refund.

  • You must CALL 1-800-288-8221 (Monday-Friday, weekdays) and speak with one of our Education Advisors to schedule your Make-up class.

  • Students may not reschedule a Make-up class registration. Any no shows or cancellations forfeit their one Make-up opportunity. Additionally, ONLC reserves the right to retire courses due to lack of demand. Retired classes are not available for Make-Up.

 

Exceptions:
Cisco classes: ONLC's Make-up option is not applicable for Cisco classes. Additionally, cancellations and reschedule requests made 14 days or fewer before the start of any Cisco class are NOT permitted. Funds will be forfeited and rescheduling is not allowed.

Special events: Any trainings or sessions that are part of a special or limited offering do not qualify for the Make-up option.

FREE RETAKE CLASS


If you would like to repeat a daytime instructor-led (ILT) class you have already attended and paid for with ONLC, contact our Education Advisors toll free about our Retake option. Our retake policy allows for...

One (1) opportunity for the student to retake the exact same publicly offered instructor-led course that the student
previously attended at ONLC Training Centers for no additional charge within 12 months of the original class.

NOTE: The free retake for Business Process/Analyst classes
must be within six (6) months of your original class date.


Courses with new software versions, revisions or revised course materials are NOT eligible for retake. Retake students need to use the course materials that were provided for their original instructor-led class for the retake session. No new materials will be provided.

ONLC reserves the right to limit retake requests based on class capacity.

If you cancel your free retake registration 14 calendar days or less before the class start, or fail to attend class you forfeit your free retake opportunity. No substitutions allowed.

ONLC reserves the right to retire courses and versions due to lack of demand. Retired classes are no longer available for the free retake.
