Terms of Service: Mental Health First Aid & The Working Minds

We strive not to reschedule our classes.

As per Mental Health Commission of Canada standards, we require a minimum of 8 people to attend the course.

All registered participants are required to attend their scheduled courses. No-shows put the class at risk of being cancelled, which is disruptive and unfair to other participants.

Classes are non-refundable.

We understand that sometimes unforeseen circumstances can arise. The certification course is non-refundable but transferrable.

If you are unable to attend a scheduled class, please give us a minimum of 5 business days' notice. This will allow us to transfer you to another class at no additional cost.

If a class is rescheduled, we will inform you immediately. Please note that we cannot and do not provide refunds in such cases. However, we will transfer you to a class of your choice. We will also suggest make-up classes that have a low probability of being rescheduled.
