APPENDIX D
Class Scheduling Guidelines for NSPF Instructors
Courses submitted for listing on the NSPF web site cannot overlap previouslyscheduled
classes. In other words, two classes cannot be scheduled in the same city
on the same date(s).
Acceptable submissions include courses in different cities within a greater metropolitan
area and/or a course immediately preceding or following another course in the same
city. However, the dates may not overlap.
Classes will be accepted for posting on a first-received, first-posted basis.
Courses may be submitted up to a maximum of 15 months prior to the date of the
class. Shown below please fi nd the earliest submission date for classes (beginning at
12:00 midnight Mountain Time on the specifi ed date).

Courses scheduled through December 31 of the following year
CPO ® certification courses scheduled during industry trade shows and/or
conventions take precedence in a specific city. NSPF will not post any CPO ®
Certifi cation courses that confl ict with the show’s course or for two days before the
show’s course begins. In the event we have posted an instructor’s course, NSPF will
remove the posted course to not confl ict with show dates and CPO ® certifi cation courses
scheduled in cooperation with the show organizers, unless the show is not hosting a
CPO ® Certifi cation course. It is recommended that NSPF Instructors review an industry
show calendar to avoid confl icts.
A course should be scheduled only if it is anticipated that the course will be
conducted. Understandably, it may be necessary to cancel a class due to lack of
interest in a certain area or other factors beyond the instructor’s control. However, a
positive perception of both the NSPF Instructor and NSPF as an organization can be
maintained with a minimal number of cancellations.

following methods:
