Practical work Laboratory work

ATTENDANCE STANDARD
Students must attend at least 67% of the actual hours to attend based on the student’s enrollment agreement. A student’s attendance pace is determined by the following formula:
Cumulative clock hours of actual attendance as of the evaluations date
Cumulative clock hours of scheduled attendance as of the evaluation date
For example, a student who is enrolled for 30 clock hours per week for 20 weeks would have a cumulative scheduled attendance of 600 clock hours. If the student attended 450 of the 600 scheduled hours, his/her attendance pace would be 75.0% (450/600) and would be meeting the attendance requirements of this policy.
