Cancellation Policy
We will not hold a spot in a workshop without a deposit. Full payment must be made forty-five days prior to start date. If the workshop is cancelled by NaturalBuildingOrg a full refund of all monies paid will be returned. For Deposit-only the deposit is non-refundable, however, it may be credited toward a future course provided you enroll within one year. Paid-in-full registrations cancelled 45 days or more before the start of the workshop, the total payment minus deposit and processing fees will be refunded, the full cost may be credited to a future workshop for which you enroll within one year. Paid-in-full registrations cancelled 30 days before the start of the workshop, only half of the total payment will be refunded, and the other half will be credited to a future workshop for which you enroll within one year. Paid-in-full registrations canceled less than 30 days from the workshop start date forfeit all payments. If, however, you can find someone willing to pay you directly in order to take your place in the workshop, we can work with them to change the registration into their name with your approval. Please be in communication right away if you have to cancel. Because workshops are awfully expensive to facilitate, and people need a lot of time to plan vacation time and travel, when we get a last-minute cancellation, we often cannot fill that spot causing a loss in funds as we have already purchased supplies and food for your stay. We want everyone to have a chance to learn natural building and will work with you the best we can to make that happen. Please keep us informed so we can give everyone a positive experience. Thank you.
