Future Professional Development Guidelines

All Future Professionals must commit to and follow the Future Professional Development Guidelines during their enrollment in school. These guidelines were established to assist in creating a safe, focused, and enjoyable learning experience. Failure to follow these guidelines may result in a coaching under the Future Professional Advisory Policy and may result in termination without prior warning.

Attendance and Documentation of Time

1. The school records attendance in clock hours and gives appropriately earned attendance credit for all hours attended and does not add or deduct attendance hours as a penalty.  Attendance is calculated using an attendance tracking app called CourseKey. It is the responsibility of the Future Professional to record their hours by checking in and out through the app. If a Future Professional fails to clock in or out for their schedule, the Future Professional will not receive hours.
   
   It is the responsibility of the Future Professional to ensure that they are properly clocking in and out as required. If a Future Professional fails to clock in or out for their schedule on the Future Professional time-clock, the Future Professional will not receive hours for the time with missed time punches. To ensure proper credit for clock hours, Future Professionals are required to clock in or out at the following times:

• When they arrive at school,
• When they leave for lunch,
• When they return from lunch,
• When they leave at the end of the day;
• If a Future Professional leaves the premises for any reason, and
• If a Future Professional is taking a break over 15 minutes, they are required to clock out.
  
  If the Future Professional wishes to dispute any hours they feel earned, the Future Professional must provide documentation to verify attendance on the missing time form. The documentation could include the Future Professional sign in sheet.
  If a Future Professional is experiencing timeclock challenges and are unable to clock in or out, they must report the challenge to the Future Professional Advisor within 24 hours.

2. The school is open from Monday through Thursday 9:30 AM to 9:30 PM, Fridays 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM for Future Professionals.
3. The Future Professional must attend school according to the schedule in the Future Professional’s enrollment agreement. All programs require continuous attendance.
4. If a student misses any time in their program, it is his or her responsibility to arrange with the Learning Leader to receive the handouts, notes, assignments, etc.
5. Future Professionals must be on time, as tardiness inhibits the learning process. Future Professionals who are late for any class must be accompanied into the classroom by a Learning Leader. Future Professionals are never excused from mandatory theory classes to work in the clinic classroom. Future Professionals cannot enter theory once class has begun, they must go to the Tech Zone.
6. Attendance Expectation Generally: Future Professionals must maintain a 100% attendance average each month in order to complete the program by the expected/calculated completion date. The school attendance policy requires 85% to maintain satisfactory progress. Falling below this number means that the Future Professional may receive a coaching on the advisory form for their attendance.
7. CORE Attendance Expectation: Future Professionals attend Core for the first weeks of enrollment. During this time the Future Professional must maintain a monthly attendance of 85%. If at the conclusion of the month, the Future Professional’s progress report does not meet 85% attendance, the Future Professional may be dropped from the program and may be asked to re-enroll in the next Core class start date.
8. Extra Instructional Charges: During the contracted enrollment period, the Future Professional must maintain a 90% attendance average each month in order to complete the program by the expected/calculated completion date. The Future Professional is allowed to miss 10% absent hours of their scheduled hours before having to pay extra instructional charges. The Future Professional may use the 10% absent hours for vacation, doctor appointments, illness, etc.; however, the Future Professional may not be out of school for 14 consecutive calendar days or they may be terminated. If the Future Professional must attend additional program hours beyond their expected/calculated completion date due to not meeting a 90% attendance average or failure to complete academic graduation requirements, the Future Professional will be charged an additional charge for each hour scheduled to complete after the expected/calculated completion date is reached. Extra Instructional Charges charges are to be paid at the time the student reaches their contracted time and must be paid one (1) month prior to graduation.

9. Future Professionals are required to be in attendance and actively participating in their education. When a Future Professional is scheduled for attendance but not present, these will be reflected as absent hours. If a Future Professional does not clock in or out properly resulting in the hours not being counted, these will be reflected in the absent hours unless the missing time form and necessary documentation is provided as outlined in the catalog. Future Professionals will receive clock hours during the times they fully participate in their learning experience.
10. Vacation and Planned Time Away (e.g. medical appointments, outside commitments):Future Professionals must request planned time o! from school from the Future Professional Advisor and the Financial Services Leader two weeks in advance. The approval of any request does not mean that the Future Professional will continue to meet the attendance requirements or will not be charged for additional instructional time per the above.
11. Unplanned Absences or Tardies: Future Professionals who are late or cannot attend school must contact the school and talk to the attendance line ext. 1113 immediately.
