Pre-Payment policy for all NOCI classes

NOCI has instituted a pre-payment policy for all classes, including Obedience, Rally, Agility and Nosework.

When registering for a class, all students will be required to pay in full. This is to prevent the loss of class spots and revenue caused by students who register but drop out without notifying the club or paying for their class.

When current students register for their next session in week 5 or 6, they must put their payment and any service credits in the class envelope on the clipboard in order to secure their spot in the class. If payments are not received by the end of week 6,that spot will be released to a student on the waiting list.

Checks will be held in the NOCI safe until just before the new classes will begin. If any student has a change in plans, their check will be returned only if they notify the club by the Friday before the new session begins. No refunds can be offered after that.
