CANCELLATIONS & NO SHOWS:

In an effort to deliver statewide Child Welfare training in a cost-effective manner, we track and document many aspects of training delivery. One of these components is the tracking of “No Shows. No Shows are costly because they do not allow sufficient time to contact staff on the wait list, which results in classes being conducted at less than capacity. Therefore:

•
 A training participant will be considered a No Show if the participant does not cancel in advance or fails to attend without notice.

A letter identifying No Shows will be sent to the appropriate agency or county supervisor.
