Message Regarding Coronavirus – Updated August 2023

It is difficult to say what the status of the COVID-19 pandemic will be in September 2023.  The statement below assumes that the status of the pandemic will remain the same as it stands at the time of writing in August 2023.

It is our top priority to look after the safety of our instructors and workshop participants during the COVID-19 Pandemic.  The facility at the DOT Highway Building provides sufficient room for widely spaces seating.  This space is large enough to accommodate the workshop and allow for adequate social distancing.  Wearing of masks or face coverings is recommended for those individuals who either request it or are more comfortable with it.  Participants will be asked to drive company or private vehicles to our outdoor field trips to minimize exposure.  Hand sanitizer will be made available to workshop participants.   We ask that if you or any member of your household has exhibited COVID-19 related symptoms or received a positive COVID-19 test within two weeks of the start date of the workshop to please notify us and a refund will be issued.  If it is determined by the NCAEP or the instructors that the workshop cannot safely proceed, participants will be offered a refund, or their registration will be saved for a later workshop when the pandemic situation has become safer.
