Top	How much does it cost? There are several tuition rates. Just call (800) 877-8905 for a straight no sales answer. A special very low tuition for "First Time Owners." This is for the funeral home decision maker. Just one time per funeral home and only when no one else in the funeral home has attended. Suspense System Discount. Reduced Tuition for Three or more. In House Staff Training Discount Tuition
Top	What does the tuition cover? Your tuition covers new and enlightening data. The Training is not a lecture, rather a hands on unique and powerful experience guaranteed to inspire, retread and create long-term positive change in abilities. You will learn to create rock solid bonding with your client which is the essence to building powerful and personalized ceremonies that heal. The tuition does not cover any meals, lodging or travel.
Top	Where will the seminar take place? Seminar locations are usually held in convenient airport hotels. They are usually held in a Hilton or a Marriott. Exact locations are not disclosed until two weeks prior to the seminar date. We discourage making any travel plans until you have been notified of the hotels name and address. LATS will make sure that a room is reserved for you so there is no need to be concerned about secure accommodations.
Top	How many participants will be in my seminar? Due to the intensive nature of The Training, registration is limited to a maximum of fourteen participants. Therefore, several “rotate outs” of a particular Training will be canceled and you will be contacted immediately. LAT supports the need of registrants to “rotate out” for important business and personal reasons. However, once “hard confirmed” in a Training, please consider an “out rotation” only if absolutely necessary.
Top	What if I have a work emergency and have to cancel? We understand the business demands of professional funeral staff. That¹s exactly why we created the "Roll Over System." Once you register for the seminar, you are never irrevocably committed. If business demands or any other reasons dictate your unavailability, even at the 11th hour, simply roll over to the next seminar convenient for you. There is never a penalty, and there are plenty of Life Appreciation Seminars each year.
Top	Can I get Continuing Education Credit? There are 16 Contact Hours per Training. Life Appreciation issues the maximum allowed per state board.
Top	What happens if my Training is cancelled? In the event your, “first choice” Training must be canceled, Life Appreciation Training guarantees a space for you in a LAT of your choice, and will organize travel arrangements and hotel accommodations if required. Or, you may place your registration in “the suspense file” to await a desired date and location for your Training. LAT is committed to accommodating your requirements to your satisfaciton to complete The Training.
Top	Does LATS offer any type of guarantee? Life Appreciation Training Seminars offers a MONEY BACK GUARANTEE: when The Life Appreciation Funeral Interview and Funeral Personalization methods are applied, your current funeral revenue will increase by a minimum of 20%. No salesmanship is taught. Revenue improvement is a direct result of your clients perceiving greater value in the funeral ceremonies you create with them. REFUND DISCLOSURE: Full tuition deposits are refundable less 37% cost if you cancel thirty days prior to the Training start date. Special tuitions or reduced tuitions may be used for any Training, they are tranferable to another person, but are not refundable.
Top	What is the schedule for the weekend? The Training Orientation is Friday, 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM in the posted Training room at the hotel. On days two and three The Training begins with breakfast as a group at 8:00 AM and will continue with The Training at 9:00 AM. Day two will conclude at approximately 6:00 PM followed with dinner as a group. Day three will conclude at 3:30 PM.
