Terms of Enrollment
In short
- Registering reserves a seat; a paid seat is confirmed once payment is received.
- Courses award a Certificate of Completion, not a license, degree, accreditation or government certification.
- Course materials are for your own learning and may not be shared or resold.
- Employer and group training is governed by its own written agreement.
01Who we are
APREAUX 31 Academy ("the Academy," "we") is a training division of APREAUX 31 Consulting, based in St. Petersburg, Florida. "You" means the person registering, or the organization registering its staff or members.
02What the courses are
The Professional Academy offers professional development and continuing education courses for people who work in, or support, disaster recovery, housing and case management. The April 31st Community Initiative offers free community education courses. None of these courses is a licensed career program, degree program or accredited program.
The Academy is not affiliated with, approved by or endorsed by FEMA, HUD, the State of Florida or any government agency. Course content explains federal rules and practices for learning purposes only. It is not legal, financial or compliance advice for any specific program.
03Eligibility
Courses are designed for adults. A participant under 18 needs written permission from a parent or guardian, and a group cohort that includes minors must have a supervising adult from the sponsoring organization.
04Registration and confirmation
- Submitting a registration reserves a seat. It is not final until we confirm it by email.
- We confirm start dates by email. Courses open in January 2027.
- For paid courses, we send an invoice and payment link. Your seat is confirmed when payment is received.
- Please give accurate information. Your certificate will show your name as you registered it.
05Prices and payment
Prices are listed in U.S. dollars on the course catalog and may change for future enrollments. The price shown when you register is the price you pay for that enrollment.
We accept credit and debit cards and ACH bank transfers. Payments are made through a secure invoice sent by Square, our payment processor. Employers may also pay contract training by ACH under the terms of their agreement. We do not accept cash. Refunds are covered by the Refund Policy.
06Course access
- Self-paced courses are available for 12 months from the day your access begins.
- Live sessions are held online at scheduled times. Recordings may or may not be offered.
- You need a device with a current web browser and a reliable internet connection.
07Certificates of Completion
You earn a Certificate of Completion when you finish every required lesson and score at least 80% on the final assessment. Live courses also require attendance at all sessions. Each certificate carries a unique ID that an employer can verify with us. A certificate shows that you completed the course. It is not a license or a government credential.
08Mental health and wellness courses
These courses teach awareness, early recognition and referral. They do not provide counseling or treatment, and they do not qualify anyone to diagnose or treat mental health conditions or to present themselves as a counselor. If you or someone near you is in crisis, call or text 988. In an emergency, call 911.
09Your account and conduct
- Your login is for you alone. Do not share it or let others take a course under your name.
- Do your own work on assessments.
- Treat instructors and classmates with respect in live sessions and discussions.
- Do not share personal information about disaster survivors, clients or case files in course discussions.
We may remove a participant who breaks these rules, without a refund where the breach is serious.
10Course materials
Videos, slides, job aids, templates and assessments belong to APREAUX 31 Consulting or its licensors. You may use them for your own learning and in your own work. You may not copy, post, resell or use them to teach others without our written permission.
11Employer and group training
Training bought by an employer, and free cohorts arranged for a church or nonprofit, may be covered by a separate written agreement. Where that agreement differs from these terms, the agreement controls. The sponsoring organization may receive attendance and completion records for its participants.
12Changes and cancellations by the Academy
We may change instructors, schedules or course content to keep material current. If we cancel a paid course, you may move to another date or receive a full refund.
13Limits of responsibility
We work to keep course content accurate and current, but federal rules and guidance change. You are responsible for checking current requirements before applying them to a real program. To the extent the law allows, our total responsibility for any claim about a course is limited to the amount you paid for that course.
14Governing law
These terms are governed by Florida law. Any dispute will be handled in the courts of Pinellas County, Florida.
15Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The version posted when you register applies to that registration.
