Course Designations

All-day courses are designated with an “A” or “B” following the course number. The “A” refers to the morning session of the course and the “B” to the afternoon session. “B” courses are always a continuation of “A” courses. For example:

C01A, 9 a.m. – noon Pre Reg: $60; Onsite: $75
C01B, 1:30 – 4:30 p.m. Pre Reg: $60; Onsite: $75

When ordering tickets for an all-day program:

  • If you wish to attend the morning session only, order tickets for the “A” course.
  • If you wish to attend the afternoon session only, order tickets for the “B” course.
  • If you wish to attend both sessions, order tickets for both the “A” and “B” courses.
  • Be sure to include payment for each session you wish to attend.
