This ensures that all participants can effectively manage their time and achieve their learning objectives within the allotted six-month access period.

Progress Requirements

Action: The candidate must pay a no-show fee of $245 to regain access to the course room and continue their training.

Benefits of Adhering to Progress Policies

This grade is awarded to students who meet all course requirements and demonstrate sufficient understanding of the material.
Students with a "Pass" grade have successfully completed all necessary assignments, exams, and other course requirements to a satisfactory level.

Fail:

This grade is given to students who do not meet the course requirements or fail to demonstrate sufficient understanding of the material.
A "Fail" grade indicates that the student has not completed the necessary assignments, exams, or other course requirements satisfactorily.

Incomplete:

This grade is assigned to students who have not completed all necessary course requirements by the end of the term due to circumstances beyond their control (e.g., illness, family emergency).
Students with an "Incomplete" must finish the missing coursework by a designated deadline to receive a final grade of "Pass" or "Fail."

Failed Exam Policy

Withdrawal

Withdrawal Process:

Before Course Access: Candidates may withdraw from a course up to 72 hours before gaining access to the course room without incurring any penalties. This allows for flexibility in case of changes in schedule or unforeseen circumstances.

After Course Access: Withdrawals after the 72-hour period will result in the issuance of a certificate of withdrawal, which will note the progress made up to the point of withdrawal. This ensures that any effort put into the course is formally recognized. Applicable fees may apply unless there are extenuating circumstances, such as medical emergencies or other significant personal issues. These circumstances will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

Extenuating Circumstances:

In cases of serious personal issues, such as health problems or family emergencies, candidates can appeal for a waiver of the withdrawal fees. Appeals should be submitted with appropriate documentation to support@aboveeducation.org for consideration.

Dismissal

Grounds for Dismissal:

Academic Integrity Violations: Candidates may be dismissed for violations such as cheating, plagiarism, or any other form of dishonest behavior that undermines the integrity of the educational process. Maintaining academic integrity is crucial for ensuring a fair and effective learning environment.

Unsatisfactory Progress: Candidates who fail to make satisfactory progress as outlined in the Absences & Course Progress Policies may also face dismissal. This ensures that all participants are committed to their educational journey and are making the necessary effort to succeed.

Reentry After Dismissal:

Dismissed candidates can apply for reentry on a case-by-case basis by contacting support@aboveeducation.org. Each application will be reviewed individually to ensure fairness and adherence to institutional policies. Factors considered may include the reasons for dismissal, any corrective actions taken by the candidate, and their commitment to meeting the program requirements going forward.

Reentry

Eligibility for Reentry:

Candidates who have withdrawn or been dismissed can reenter the program if they remain in good standing, meaning they have no outstanding fines or fees. This policy ensures that candidates are financially and administratively prepared to re-engage in their studies.

Reentry Process:

For Withdrawn Candidates: Candidates who have voluntarily withdrawn and wish to reenter the program must contact support@aboveeducation.org to begin the reentry process. These candidates typically face fewer barriers to reentry, provided they are in good standing.

For Dismissed Candidates: Reentry for dismissed candidates is more stringent and is evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Dismissed candidates must demonstrate that they have addressed the issues that led to their dismissal. This may involve providing evidence of improved behavior, completing additional preparatory work, or other measures as deemed necessary by the review committee.

Individual Consideration:

Each application for reentry will be individually reviewed to ensure fairness. The review process will consider the specific circumstances of the withdrawal or dismissal, any corrective actions taken by the candidate, and their readiness to adhere to program requirements. This personalized approach helps ensure that candidates who are reentering are set up for success.

Maintaining Good Standing:

To be eligible for reentry, candidates must resolve any outstanding issues, such as unpaid fines or incomplete coursework. Being in good standing indicates that the candidate is prepared to fully commit to their education and meet all program expectations.
