College courses require your time and effort on a consistent basis as well as communicating with the course instructor, tutor, or BHMT Career Development Coach if you are having difficulties or conflicts. Should you not complete your program successfully with a ‘C’ or better, pass, or drop the course by the institution’s 1st drop date, your participation in Trust programs may be suspended for a period of twelve months.
These classes do not have a maximum capacity and will accommodate every student who registers. There will not be a “traditional cohort” which has been common for BHMT classes. You will be able to register freely on your own and take classes around your own schedule. Your registration confirmation will come from CTU.
CTU will send your final grade to the Trust so your Tuition Reimbursement account can be charge appropriately.
Withdraws will be handled by CTU representatives. Please contact the Student Advisor (1-855-283-1590, BHMT@coloradotech.edu) or you can contact the student advisor assigned to you. You have until the end of week one (by Saturday) to cancel or drop the course. If you find your circumstances prevent you from remaining in the course, you will need to let the instructor and Trust know. Your tuition reimbursement will not be charged, however failure to communicate may result in you not being able to participate in any trust-sponsored program for a period of twelve months.
Services include unlimited tutoring, learning labs, advising and technical support. Technical support is available 24/7.
