Cancellation Policy
The course is very resource intensive, with much effort being provided by the Department of Emergency Medicine. There are a limited number of spots for each course, and it can be difficult to find participants to fill spots that open up due to cancellation. In light of this, cancellation is nonrefundable.
Please contact Anthony Ochoa at 204-881-1715 or Anthony.Ochoa@umanitoba.ca for any cancellation.
