How will I know my registration is confirmed? Where will the seminar be held?

You will receive a confirmation email as soon as a registration form is completed. This will contain all of the information you will need with regards to date, time, location and any additional instructions regarding the professional development seminar. Depending on the date of registration, some venues may not yet be determined. This information will be sent to you in a reminder email 2 weeks prior to the seminar start date.

When is the last day that I can register for a seminar?

You may call to register up to the day before a seminar, however, it is preferable that you give us enough notice to ensure that materials are available for you. Please do not go to a meeting without first checking on availability.

 

When do I pay for my seminar?

Once your registration is confirmed, you will be issued an invoice. This invoice must be paid prior to the seminar start date. Payments are accepted in person or via phone, mail or fax. (For registrations from outside of North America, we do require the funds be sent via wire payment only).

What if I paid with a Purchase order and I need a receipt or a refund?

A Purchase Order is a promise of payment, so it does not mean that payment has been received. If possible, have your confirmation number ready. The confirmation number is located on your invoice/meeting notice. If your payment has been received, we will issue a receipt or refund to you as appropriate. To check on the status of your payment, please call us at 1-877-262-2519.

If you cannot attend a seminar for which you have paid and are confirmed and cannot find a substitute to take your place, notify us by email or fax no later than 15 business days prior to your session's start date to transfer or for a complete refund.

If you cancel with 15 business days or less before the start date of that course, and cannot find a replacement for yourself, you will be liable for the entire seminar fee.

The complimentary transfer must be used within one year of the original cancelled session. We will also work with you if the courtesy transfer needs to be substituted within your organization.

Sustainability

Giving Back to the Environment through Partners in Growth™

Over the course of Canadian Management Centre’s day-to-day operations we rely heavily on printed materials to successfully service the needs of our clients. From marketing collateral through to the thousands of notebooks and learning materials we produce yearly, we end up using a very large volume of paper.

Because of this high volume paper use and its effect on our environment, Canadian Management Centre is proud to have partnered with St. Joseph Communications. As a client of St. Josephs, Canadian Management Centre is a participant in the Partners in Growth™ program, which to date has planted over 2,000,000 trees across Canada

Launched in 1990 in partnership with Scouts Canada, this one-of-a kind program replenishes the natural resources we depend on, primarily on public parkland and riverbanks (never to be harvested) across Canada.

Can I get your seminars delivered on-site?
