Section 04B .0818 - ADDITIONAL SPONSOR REQUIREMENTS

(a) Sponsors and instructors may make available for purchase by continuing education students materials that belong to the sponsor or instructor. Class time may not be used to promote or sell any materials or to solicit affiliation or membership in any business, organization, or association.

(b) Course sponsors shall administer course cancellation and fee refund policies in a consistent and non-discriminatory manner. In the event a scheduled course is canceled, the course sponsor shall attempt to notify preregistered students of the cancellation and all prepaid fees received from such preregistered students shall be refunded within 30 days of the date of cancellation or, with the student's permission, applied toward the fees for another course.

(c) Course sponsors shall admit the Board's authorized representative to monitor any continuing education class without prior notice. The representative shall not be required to register or pay any fee and shall not be reported as having completed the course.

(d) Course sponsors may deviate from the rules of this Section concerning the conduct of continuing education courses, such as rules addressing classroom facilities and instructional methods, as may be necessary in order for the sponsor to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act or other laws requiring such sponsors to accommodate persons with disabilities. A sponsor providing a special accommodation for a licensee with a disability that requires the sponsor to deviate from these Rules shall notify the Board in writing of the accommodation at the time reports are submitted for the class session attended by the licensee.
