Attendance Agreement
1. The BOLD program runs 6 weeks: an in-person Orientation & Graduation plus 4 virtual sessions. All sessions are on Thursdays from 11 am -1 pm EST.
2. Prior to each class, there is about 30 minutes of asynchronous material posted on our learning platform that you need to watch and use as preparation for the live virtual class. We consider this material a critical part of the BOLD program. If you are absent from the live virtual class, we still expect you to complete this material.
3. We understand conflicts happen as you balance BOLD participation with work/life issues. Please notify Program Director Jay Shatz of a planned absence. If you cannot attend a session, we ask you to watch the recording of the virtual live session.

4. 2 unexcused absences qualify as dropping out of the BOLD program

Tuition

A limited number of scholarships are granted for each cohort.
Need Based Scholarships
Typically, employers pay the tuition for employees who want to participate in the BOLD program. We encourage employees to speak with their management about paying for their program tuition.

Scholarships are typically awarded to individuals with a financial constraint or need that would otherwise prohibit them from participating in the program.  A limited number of scholarships are granted to members of smaller nonprofits and others who require financial assistance.
