If there are no spaces left in a workshop you wish to attend, please click the "Join waitlist" button to be added to the workshop's waiting list.

Workshop Cancellation Policy

A scheduled workshop will be cancelled if an insufficient number of participants have registered and paid 14 days prior to the workshop date. On rare occasions a workshop may be cancelled because the instructor is unable to present the workshop.

In either case, participants will be notified by phone or email and issued a refund. Refunds can be made via PayPal or mailed to you upon request.

Workshop Refund Policy

The OVQG does not issue refunds for workshop fees, unless the class was cancelled by OVQG or the instructor.

Note: In exceptional circumstances (such as a death or serious illness requiring a medical note or hospital visit), the workshops coordinator has the discretion to issue a refund.
