If there is someone else in your organization that would like to attend in your place – this fee will not be charged. The cancelation policy is outlined below:

  • Cancellations can be made by email or phone: edservices@ge.com or by contacting 888-799-9921.
  • For cancellations made more than 4 weeks prior to the class start date, there is no cancellation fee.

  • GE reserves the right to cancel or reschedule any class for any reason and at any time. GE will not be held responsible for any travel costs incurred due to causes beyond our control, such as, but not limited to, hurricanes, tornados, or strikes.
