-
- In the event that a student fails the initial test, they will be afforded the opportunity to take one re-test. However, if the student fails the re-test, they will be required to retake the entire course and will be responsible for payment of the course fee in order to retake the course.
-
- Driving Prohibition: It is strictly prohibited for students to be driving or situated behind the wheel of a motor vehicle during any course session. This policy is in place to ensure the full attention and participation of all students in a safe and controlled environment conducive to learning.
- Consequences of Violation: If a student is observed to be driving or behind the wheel of a motor vehicle during a course session, they will be immediately ejected from the class day. Furthermore, the student will be required to retake the missed day at their own expense to complete the course requirements. This policy is strictly enforced to maintain the integrity and effectiveness of the training program.
13.
Certification: A certificate of completion will be issued to each student who successfully completes the training. The certificate will contain the name and license number of the school, the name(s) and license number(s) of the Class “DI” instructor(s) who conducted the training, and the number of hours of training completed.
14.
Online Training: The online training will be conducted using live instruction from STG with SSL/TLS technology for secure website access. Students must verify their identity using a US state or federal-issued photo identification. Daily attendance will be verified through visual inspection and recorded in a digital log per state requirements.
15.
Student Participation: It is expected that students participate actively throughout the course, with the provision of security questions at random intervals to ensure engagement. Failure to answer security questions correctly may fail non-participation. Should a student's screen be locked out, they must contact STG customer support to unlock it. Failure to complete the course hours as mandated by the state will require the student to repeat the missed coursework and complete the required training hours.
16.
Records: STG will maintain records for two years, including a schedule of each class session, course materials and reference sources, the original of each final exam, and a log for each class session. STG will maintain a digital record of the student attendance log for each class session, records of all training sessions, and proof of compliance with all security protocols.

Termination: We reserve the right to terminate access to the platform at any time for any student who violates these terms and conditions or engages in conduct that is disruptive or harmful.
