<aside> ❗ Note: Please get in touch with @Yve Nichols-Evans if your cohort has 3 or fewer people actively attending.

We have received a lot of feedback that participant attendance significantly affects the quality of discussions — higher attendance means higher quality discussions, and vice versa. Hence, we want to encourage participants to:

• Plan ahead to reduce scheduling conflicts.
• Change your cohort or Waitlist for a future round if you foresee missing too many sessions.
• Attend all sessions even if you didn’t complete the readings or exercises. We think you can still learn a lot from showing up!
• Complete the Write-up for missing attendance if you really can’t make it.

However, we understand that sometimes life priorities (health, familial obligations, work) can take over and we want to be considerate of participants who need time off to deal with more important things.

We hope this strikes a balance between higher discussion quality and better flexibility for participants.

<aside> ⚠️ Once you’ve missed three or more sessions, your facilitator will have the final say on whether you can stay on the program or you’ll withdraw from the program.
