Attendace Policy

Adopted by the IEDC Board of Regents, September 12, 1982

Students attending Basic Economic Development Courses and the Economic Development Institute shall be required to be present at all classes offered to receive credit for the course or year. No excuses for absence shall be accepted except those of illness, family emergency, or business emergency. If illness, family emergency or business emergency forces a student to be absent from more than ten (10) percent of the course or year, the course or year must be repeated for credit to be granted.

This policy of the Board of Regents shall be printed in course materials and verbally reviewed by course directors or class directors at the beginning of each course or year.

Definitions

Business Emergency - One in which a client, the superior of a student, or an elected officer of his/her organization contacts the course director or dean of the institute with a request for resolving a business need.

Family Emergency - Serious illness of spouse, child, or parents; death of an immediate family member (grandparents, parents, spouse, children).

Illness - Sickness which is serious enough to require the services of a physician.
