Training Cancellation and Refund Policies
Our basic cancellation refund policy is to refund all fees to you except those portions that we have paid to third parties such as retreat centers, assessment services, credit card fees etc. for which we will not be reimbursed. All refunds will be made by check to the participant.
Single Day Commuter Programs
The complete registration fee, minus a 15% service fee, may be refunded up to seven days before the training event. Thereafter the registration fee will be forfeited.
Multi-Day Tuition Refunds
The tuition portion of your registration is completely refundable, minus a 5% service fee, up to the day of starting the program. Tuition fees can be transferred to an alternative program without penalty.
Accommodation Refunds
In general retreat centers require notification of occupancy a month before the program and charge a cancellation fee after that date.
Any commuter or accommodation fees will be assessed within one month of a program if the reservation is cancelled. Commuter or residential accommodation fees can not be transferred to other programs.
For programs with assessments such as the Coaching Competent Leaders: Once you receive notification to complete an assessment you will be charged the assessment fee.

Grievances For Continuing Education Programs
The Appreciative Way is fully committed to conducting all activities in strict conformance with Continuing Education Ethical Principles.
When a grievance arises at a continuing education program event grievances will be handled initially on an informal oral basis. If the issue is not satisfactorily resolved or is of such an egregious nature it will be handled in a formal written basis. When a participant, either orally or in written format, files a grievance and expects action on the complaint, the following actions will be taken.
1. If the grievance arises during a continuing education program and concerns a speaker, the content presented by the speaker, or the style of presentation, or the nature of the training facilities, the complainant is expected to discuss the situation with the speaker or the program coordinator immediately so the situation can be rectified in a timely manner to ensure the quality of the ongoing continuing education experience.
2. If the grievance arises during a continuing education program and concerns a speaker, the content presented by the speaker, or the style of presentation or the nature of the training facilities, and the complainant is unable or unwilling to speak directly to the speaker or the program coordinator the complainant is asked to put their comments in written format and send them to the Continuing Education Program Administrator, Dr. Rob Voyle, 24965 NW Pederson Rd. Hillsboro, OR 97124, or by email to Rob Voyle
3. If the grievance concerns a registration issue or following a continuing education event, such as not receiving credit the complainant is expected to promptly raise the issue with the Continuing Education Program Administrator, Dr. Rob Voyle either informally by telephone at 503 703 0576 or formally in writing to 24965 NW Pederson Rd. Hillsboro, OR 97124, or by email to Rob Voyle to resolve the issue.
4. For all complaints; if the speaker, program coordinator, or Continuing Education Program Administrator is unable to resolve the complaint will be referred to the Director of The Appreciative Way, Dr. Robert Voyle for final arbitration:
Possible resolution outcomes may be:
- Communication with speaker for modification of the program content or presentation style.
- Change in future venues to afford better physical environments.
- Partial or full refund of tuition or alternative opportunity to participate in future alternative programs.
5. Complainants making formal written grievances will receive written notification, within one month of receipt of the complaint, of the steps taken and the final disposition.
6. All grievance records will be kept confidential and in secured files.
6. If the parties involved are unable to resolve the issue, they will be settled legally according to the laws of the State of Oregon.
