What if my tuition is paid by an employer or organization?
When employers agree to pay student tuition, Virginia Peninsula Workforce Development needs a letter of authorization on original employer letterhead. This letter must be provided at the time the participant registers in person for a course and must contain an original signature and include the following information for each participant:

Student's Name
Company Billing Address
City, State & Zip Code
Company Federal Tax ID Number
Approved Courses

Please Note:
A separate letter is needed if the employer agrees to pay for the textbooks. The letter should contain the same information as noted above. Please send the letter to:

What is your cancelation/refund policy? 
Participants may withdraw in person or by calling (757) 825-4070 up to three business days before the class beings and receive a refund or transfer to another class.  When a class is canceled by the college, registered participants are given the option to attend another section of the same class (if available) or a full refund.  All refunds are issued via check through the state treasure's office and generally take four to eight weeks.  All refunds are automatically issued to the class registrant even if the tuition was paid by another individual, employer or organization. An exception to the refund being received by the registrant could occur if the employer and organization submits a letter of authorization for invoicing or provides payment via corporate credit card. Books are purchased separately and are not included in refunds.
