There are three ways to obtain an application:
How will I know that my application was received and that I have been scheduled for a class?
Once your application and all the proper documentation (listed in the application) have been received, you will be notified by telephone and given your class details.
What if I need to reschedule the class that I have registered for?
Call EIWPF at 888-511-3113 ext #3, to notify us that you will be unable to attend your scheduled class and we will be happy to reschedule you for the next mutually available class. There is no additional fee to reschedule. Please do not just skip the class without notifying EIWPF, if this occurs you will be marked absent and you may not be entitled to a refund.
What if I am on call the day of the class?
You are better off rescheduling the class. Once you begin the class you are required to attend the entire class. No partial credit will be given to students who miss a portion of the class. If you do miss a portion of the class you will be required to attend another class for the full 8 hours.
What if I get sick or have an emergency during class and I need to leave the class?
You will be allowed to leave the class, however, you will be required to attend another full 8-hour class. No partial credit will be given to students who miss a portion of the class. If you leave class due to an emergency you will not be required to pay another $90 when you reschedule for the next class.
If I leave a class due to illness or emergency can I just come to the next class?
No, you must contact the EIWPF at 888-511-3113 ext. #3, to be rescheduled for the next mutually available class.
Can I take a PACE class online?
Yes. All PACE programs are online due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
