How we work together in the training room.

These are the rules for every practical, in-person class. Read them before your first session and keep them handy — your instructor will hold you to them, and so will your future clients.

Sixteen rules, grouped by when they matter: before class, in the room, at your station, and for everyone's safety.

New students: sign the required forms, then pay your registration fee before registering for a class.

Upcoming classes

Practical in-person training sessions at our Hilo campus. Space is limited, so sign up early.

  • No classes are scheduled right now. Check back soon or contact the college.

To attend: sign the required forms, pay the one-time registration fee, then pay for your class.

Forms to sign first

Complete these online before you pay your fees. Both take a few minutes.

Class registration can't be processed until both forms are submitted. If a form won't load, contact the college and we'll send you a copy.

Pay your fees

Pay in this order. The registration fee comes first, then your class. Fees and what they cover are detailed in the Student Agreement.

  1. Registration feeA fee you only need to pay once. Once it's paid you are allowed to sign up for classes.
