Course requirements listed must be completed in order to pass the course. A student must have a grade of at least 80% in order to receive a passing grade.  3. Attendance is mandatory at each class. In the event of a student being unable to attend class, prior notification to the faculty is appreciated and requested. Missed classes will affect total grade and professionalism grade. Depending on course content, material covered in class may not be able to be made up by the student. 4. Tests/quizzes are to be taken at the times they are scheduled. In the event a test must be missed, prior notification to faculty member is required.  Arrangements will need to be made for testing with faculty member or testing center and will be allowed at the discretion of the instructor.  Quizzes missed without prior notification of and permission from the instructor will receive a “0” grade for the quiz.
