GTAR/NORES Winter Weather Policy
We are in that time of year when
the weather does not always work in our favor; therefore, GTAR/NORES has
established the following inclement weather policy for all education classes at
GTAR (CE, Computer, New Member Orientation, etc.): If Tulsa Public Schools are
closed the day of a scheduled class due to hazardous driving conditions, the
GTAR/NORES class is canceled. Depending on the type of class being canceled, the
class will either be rescheduled for a future date or a full refund will be
issued. In addition, for those of you who live outside the Tulsa area, if
schools in your area are closed the day of class or you are uncomfortable
making the drive, you can still receive a refund, but you MUST call or email us
that day (day of the class). You cannot just be a “no show” and expect a
refund. Please be sure to check one of the local news channels the night before
and/or morning of a scheduled class for school closings.
You Can Take CE Classes Online Anytime!
GTAR is partnered with both McKissock Education and Barnes Real Estate
School to offer you a variety of online continuing education classes to fulfill
