2. Course Cancellation by HPC due to COVID-19 Pandemic

During the COVID-19 pandemic, HPC will follow guidance issued by local public health officials to conduct each course safely.  HPC will comply with all local regulations and if local policy decisions require course cancellation, customers will be issued a full refund or credit toward a future course.  If a refund is requested, progress through the HPC online course will be reviewed by HPC staff and the full credit will be reduced by an amount determined by the customer’s percentage of completion of the online course.  Hospital Procedures Consultants is NOT responsible for any registrant travel or accommodation expenses.
