• Please also see the Resources page for supplementary material pertaining to the preapproval requirements.
• We require the adoption of the following cancellation policy:
  1) When cancelling a pre-approved course, the CE provider must notify every registrant no later than 72 hours before the date/time of the scheduled course.
  2) For Emergency Cancellations—those falling inside the 72 hour prior notice rule—the provider must notify every registrant within 72 hours after the cause of the emergency cancellation.
  3) Upon notifying the registrants, the provider should explain the following:
      a) the reason for the cancellation,
      b) the alternate delivery option for rescheduling the course, and
      c) the procedures to be followed by registrants to receive a refund of the
        course fee before 60 days have elapsed from the date of cancellation,
        or to participatein the rescheduled course.
• Please note that any approved course by ICJE can be subject to a recommendation of a course audit at any time by ICJE to the Court Reporting Training Council (CRTC).  If you have any questions regarding to the course audit process please contact Christina Bazemore at ICJE.
