To retrieve your Admit-toClass form, please visit srs.humber.ca, and you will be prompted to login with your Humber user name and password.

Students taking a renewal course are required to bring evidence of their previous certification and the training manual/book received in initial training. 10. What renewal course should I take?

What happens if I am late for the course? Due to the nature of emergency skills courses and the policies set by Humber College, the Canadian Red Cross and the Heart and Stroke Foundation, students must be present for 100% of the course work. Students arriving more than 15 minutes late will not be allowed to participate nor will a transfer to another class be granted. No refund will be issued. Please plan to arrive 30 minutes early for the classroom session in order to sign in. 12. Can I get a refund for an Emergency Skills course? To request a refund, please contact the Customer Service and Registration Centre. Our office must receive your request by the date indicated on your Admit-To-Class form. Last revised: 2014/09/11 Page 5 Full refunds will be granted only when Humber cancels a course. See the cancelled course policy. Some courses have special refund policies. Refunds may take seven to ten days for processing from the date the refund request is received. Where payment was made by cash or cheque, refund cheques will be issued and mailed. Where payment was made by Visa or MasterCard, a credit will be made to the credit card that was used. 13. What if I enrolled in the wrong course but did not find out until I arrived? Students should go directly to the Humber College Customer Service and Registration Centre. However, it is the student's responsibility to ensure they are enrolled in the correct course and that they meet all the requirements of the specific course. 14. Can I transfer to another Emergency Skills course? In most cases, students are permitted one transfer from one class or course to another in the same academic semester, prior to the start of class. Transfers can be made by phone at 416.675.5005 or in person. Exceptions to the transfer policy will not be made for students who register late. Second and subsequent transfers will incur an administrative charge. There are exceptions to this policy. Please refer to your Admit-to-Class form. Note: Certain courses are excluded from this general policy. Please refer to your Admit-toClass form. 15. What if an Emergency Skills course is cancelled? We regret we must cancel courses for which enrolment is insufficient. When your course is cancelled, you may either transfer to another course or request a refund. Refunds are not issued for cancelled courses automatically, as many students prefer to transfer. Please let us know how you would like us to proceed by contacting us. If we do not hear from you, we will process a full refund of fees one month after the start of the course. Last revised: 2014/09/11 Page 6 16. Can I take the program required First Aid and CPR or CPR course with another organization? Humber College does not require students to obtain certification in Emergency Skills through Humber College.
