Accommodations, Cancellations, Hotels and Photos
Professional Development Accommodations
SWWC is committed to ensuring that its communications with individuals with disabilities in its programs, services, and activities, are as effective as communications with individuals without disabilities, consistent with applicable legal requirements. To meet this obligation, SWWC will provide, free of charge, appropriate auxiliary aids and services whenever necessary, to ensure that individuals with disabilities have an equal opportunity to participate in and benefit from its programs, services and activities. These procedures extend to applicants, participants, companions, and members of the public who seek to participate in or access SWWC’s programs, services, and activities.
Requests for auxiliary aids, closed captioning and other accommodations should be directed to:
Deecy Jesse, 100 London Road, Marshall, MN 56258; 507-537-2250; deecy.jesse@swwc.org
Requests should be made by an individual with a disability who needs auxiliary aids, closed captioning, and services, or by someone acting on that individual’s behalf. Requests may be made either in writing or orally. Requests need to be made and received by Deecy at least two weeks in advance of the program, activity or service in question. SWWC will address all requests, but may not be able to arrange for the provision of an appropriate auxiliary aid, closed captioning or service if notice is not received two weeks in advance of the program, activity, or service. SWWC requires a notice of three business days to cancel an accommodation request. If an individual fails to give notice of cancellation three business days prior to the event, SWWC reserves the right to bill the individual’s school district/agency for this expense.
Cancellation Policy
Cancellations must be received by 4:30pm on the date noted in your registration confirmation email to qualify for a full refund, after which all registrations are final, and no refunds will be issued. Substitution of attendees from the same district/organization will be allowed up to the day of the event. In the event a workshop is canceled by SWWC, a full refund will be given. SWWC will notify registered attendees that the refund will be occurring and will post on the account for the credit card utilized for payment. This cancellation policy, including specific cancellation details provided in event registration information, will be followed when determining if a refund will be issued for cancellations that are not the decision of SWWC.
Dietary Accommodations
SWWC makes every effort to accommodate dietary requests. A dietary accommodation must be received before the event registration deadline and can be indicated in the "Special Accommodations" section during online registration or by emailing the event contact person listed on the registration site.
