SOAR Attendance Policy

One of the most powerful features of the SOAR program is the peer-to-peer learning environment. This allows for engaged group discussions in a safe environment where you can learn and grow from each other.

In order to maintain this specialized environment and to ensure your SOAR experience is maximized, we do require 100% attendance. Meeting dates are given in advance in order for you to plan your professional and personal commitments. We do understand conflicts arise which are out of your control and we strive to accommodate those situations. To help you comply to the attendance policy, your supervisor has received the meeting dates and is aware of the mandatory attendance policy.

You will be allowed to miss one meeting, but you will be required to make-up the missed meeting. Please contact Kim Stone-Yonts (kim@soarlead.com) to coordinate your meeting make-up.

However, if you do miss more than one meeting, you will not be able to graduate from the program. If, at some point, you realize you are going to miss a second meeting, please notify SOAR immediately.  If it is an emergency, contact your facilitator and Kim at SOAR to let them know your situation.

Having all participants present at every meeting is crucial to maintaining the integrity of the program. SOAR’s attendance policy is established to emphasize the importance of this time that is dedicated specifically for your leadership growth and development. We ask you to honor your attendance commitment.
