South Seattle Community College/ Medical Office Short-term Training Program
Student Conduct and Attendance Policy
I. Attendance Policy and general information
Consider your training a priority. Treat it as a job.
Be on time. An Instructor must approve any tardiness from breaks or lunch.
If you know you are going to be absent, need to come in late or leave early, the Coordinator must be aware of it and approve it by written authorization (either a note or email), or called in to (206) 768-6646 or a voice mail left to (206) 228-7561 prior to 10:00am. If you are unable to make a phone call at the appointed times, please call in during the day of the absence, or the assumption will be that you do not intend to return to class and will be dropped.
There will be NO late homework accepted, nor any late tests administered. Early homework and tests administered is at the discretion of the instructor.
Missing one full daily session, 10am-12:30, 1:00-2:00 or 2:00-4:30, constitutes a half-day’s absence. Your grades and program success will suffer greatly by missing time in class.
This program is your full-time job for the next 90 days, and most employers do not allow any time off during the first 90 days of employment. We understand that there may be at least one day during the week when you might need to take care of your personal business. You must call or email the Coordinator if you need to be out of class or any reason. After 3 full-day absences, regardless of the reason, you will need to meet with the Instructor/ Coordinator, to discuss your performance and progress in the program. In addition to attendance, dismissal from the program is at the discretion of the Program Coordinator and instructors.
No cell phones will be permitted in class, unless on vibrate or silent. No calls will be taken during class.
Due to the fact that we are in a computer lab, there is no eating at the computer stations. Drinks are only permitted in closed air-tight containers, to avoid spillage.
Under NO circumstances, will there be any personal email, MSN Instant Messaging, Internet surfing, computer games or work on anything that is not expressly class-work related allowed during class time. Dismissal from the program may result from the use of personal email, non-class-work related internet surfing, instant messaging or computer games done during class time.
Any student with a documented disability condition (e.g., physical, learning, psychiatric, vision, hearing, etc.) who needs to arrange reasonable accommodations must contact the instructor and Disability Support Services in the Robert Smith Building, Room RS 12 (763-5137) for assistance in developing a plan to address your academic needs.
Any student who engages in any “Student Misconduct” activity (as described below), may be either removed from the Program by the Program Coordinator and/or sent to the Director of Workforce Education and the Vice President of Student Services for further disciplinary action.
II. Student Conduct (WAC 375.30 Student Misconduct):
Misconduct for which the campuses may impose sanctions includes but is not limited to any of the following (please see the SSCC student handbook or website for further details):
a. The intentional or repeated obstruction or disruption of teaching, research, administration, disciplinary proceedings or other campus activities, including public service functions and other authorized activities on campus premises;
b. Physical abuse, verbal abuse threats, intimidation, harassment, coercion and/or other conduct which threatens or endangers the health or safety of any person on campus premises or at any campus-sponsored or campus-supervised function;

d. The intentional making of false statements and/or filing of false charges against the colleges and/or members of the District community;
e. Forgery, alteration or misuse of district documents, records, funds or instruments of identification with the intent to defraud;
f. Attempted or actual damage to or theft of property of the college or of a member of the College community or other personal or public property;
g. Hazing - Hazing means any method of initiation into a student organization or any pastime or amusement engaged in with respect to such an organization that causes, or is likely to cause, bodily danger or physical harm, or serious mental or emotional harm to any student or other person attending any college of the Seattle Community College District.
h. Possession of explosives, dangerous chemicals or illegal weapons. Illegal possession of weapons or unauthorized use of possession of any device or substance which can be used to inflict bodily harm or to damage real or personal property;
i. Alcoholic beverages: Being demonstrably under the influence of any form of alcoholic beverage. Possessing or consuming any form of liquor or alcoholic beverage except as a participant of legal age in a student program, banquet or educational program which has the special written authorization of the college president or his/her designee.
j. Controlled substances: Using, possessing, selling or being under the influence of any narcotic drug or controlled substance as defined in chapter 69.50 RCW. 101 as now law or hereafter amended, except when the use or possession of a drug is specifically prescribed as medication by an authorized medical doctor or dentist. For the purpose of the regulation[,] "sale" shall include the statutory meaning defined in [RCW 69.50.410] [RCW 69.04.005] as now law or hereafter amended.
