Please Note NO SHOW FEE:

The Washington Hospitals Workers' Compensation Program (WHWCP) presented multiple training sessions in 2007. Some registered members did not attend the training sessions. WHWCP spends considerable time and expenses on these training sessions and needs a minimum attendance to substantiate training meetings/conferences. In order to address this issue, WHWCP has instituted a NO SHOW FEE for those members whose employees register to attend but do not attend. There is no cost to attend training sessions; but there is a cost to register but not attend. Substitutions are permitted. A minimum attendance is required; less than minimum may result in cancellation of the training. A hospital representative must sign the NO SHOW FEE agreement included in the registration materials for all attendees.

Additional information on “Training Opportunities” will be added as they develop.
