Professional Development
Description:

How to enroll:
It is very simple; Call 619-265-0107 and an admissions representative will be happy to assist you.
Requirements:
Some courses require pre-requisite skills and will be interviewed and assessed by the assigned instructor to make sure the student meets all of the prerequisites for the course, as well as to determine if the course will meet the expectations of the “PD student.” Please see designated course page for exact requirements.
Payment:
Payment is due before entering course (cash or all major credit cards accepted). If course is not paid in full before course begins the “PD student” will be dropped from the course. There is no government financial aid for PD courses.
Certificate of Completion:
The “PD Student” will receive a certification of completion upon request. College credit, grade, transcript, diploma or an academic degree will not be issued.
Grading:
The “PD student” will NOT receive an academic grade for course(s).
Class Schedule and Hours:
All courses are 100 clock hours and are held Monday-Friday, 8AM-12PM. All courses are 5-weeks in length.
Attendance Policy:
Regular attendance is expected of the student. More than a 20% absence rate in a course will result in the “PD student” being dropped from the course. Nevertheless, the instructors have the prerogative to permit less than the above stated number of absences based on the specific requirements of the course.
Job Placement:
Platt College San Diego is not responsible for placing the “PD student” into a job.
Availability:
Enrollment in courses is subject to available seating.
Cancellation Policy:
An enrolled “PD student” can withdraw from the course without any penalty. The “PD student” will receive a full refund of any money paid if canceled prior to course beginning date or within the first seven days of enrollment. “Day” is defined as a calendar day.
Cancellation occurs when a “PD student” gives a written notice to the registrar of Platt College San Diego.
The student is financially responsible for any distributed supplies. If returned in saleable condition the “PD student” will receive a full refund on each supply.
Pro Rata Policy:
If “PD student” attends less than 60% of the course there will be a pro rata calculation. No refund occurs if “PD student” attends more than 60% (15 course days) of the course.
