Withdrawal more than 30 days before the activity
A person who withdraws more than 30 days before the activity date is entitled to a 50% reimbursement of the fee payable.

Withdrawal for reasons of illness (supporting medical certificate)
In case of illness or other exceptional circumstances deemed valid by the Medical Education Division, the person is entitled to a complete reimbursement of the fee payable.

Absence or no valid reason
No reimbursement will be paid to a person who does not present himself or herself for the ALDO-Québec educational activity, nor to a person whose reason is not deemed valid by the Medical Education Division.

Presentation of a withdrawal request
All applications for withdrawal must be made in writing and be signed. They must also indicate the reason for the withdrawal and contain, if applicable, a medical certificate.
