NO SHOW FEE:  (download)

In 2007, WHWCP presented multiple on-site training sessions. Some members registered but did not attend the training sessions. WHWCP spends considerable time and expenses on these training sessions and needs a minimum attendance to substantiate training meetings/conferences. In order to address this issue, WHWCP has instituted a NO SHOW FEE for those members whose employees register to attend but do not attend. There is no cost to attend training sessions; but there is a cost to register but not attend. Substitutions are permitted. A minimum attendance is required; less than minimum may result in cancellation of the training. A hospital representative must sign the NO SHOW FEE agreement included in the registration materials for all attendees.
