ANSI/IACET 1-2018 Standard for Continuing Education and Training


In accordance with ANSI/IACET 1-2018 Standard for Continuing Education and Training:

APT strictly prohibits the use of any material that contains explicit references of a discriminatory nature based on gender, ethnicity, religion, age, disability, socioeconomic status, and/or sexual orientation. This includes any content that is determined to make or show an unfair prejudicial distinction between different categories of people or things, especially on the grounds of race, age, or sex. All individuals attending a learning event, including those involved in the development and execution of the learning event (i.e. instructor(s), training coordinator, learners, etc.) are responsible for maintaining this standard.

It is the policy of A-P-T Research, Inc. that those leading a learning event (instructors, guest lectures, etc.) disclose proprietary interest in any products, services, instruments, devices or materials discussed during a learning event. This includes any source of third-party compensation. Leaders of a learning event are required to disclose this information in the form of a verbal announcement at the beginning of the learning event.


Training Cancellation Policy: If you are forced to cancel your reservations after payment of the fee, you will be entitled to transfer the reservation to a later class, 100% refund (minus credit card processing fees) if cancelled 60 days or more prior to the class date, or a 50% refund (minus credit card processing fees) if cancelled 30 days or more prior to the class date. No refunds are available if requested less than 30 days prior to class date, but substitutions can be arranged.

If minimum attendance for financial viability is not met, APT reserves the right to cancel the course up to 15 days prior to class date and a full refund will be provided or reservation may be transferred to another date.
