Class Setup:
There are three steps to set up a class:

  1. The instructor must fill out a signup to reserve a slot for holding the class/workshop.
    https://artistsinaction.org/sheet/class-workshop/
  2. After selecting a date in the signup sheet, the instructor must complete a Class/Workshop Request form. Class/Workshop Request Form  
  3. After the form is reviewed and approved, AiA will set up the class pages for the website and the class promotion. Once accepted, the instructor will need to fill out the Rental Agreement Form.

Student Enrollment:
AiA will direct the students to the class web page from social media and this section. The students will then get more information about the class and can register/pay for it. All class information will be shared with the instructor.

Fees and Distribution

Once the class/workshop has been completed, the class fee will be distributed to the Instructor, AiA and Elsinore. The rental fee is $60 – $50 goes to Elsinore for the space and $10 goes to AiA for tape/floor protection. The instructor can charge a materials fee, which goes to the instructor. The rental fee and materials fee are a part of the class fee (set by the instructor), which is paid by the student to enroll in the class. The rental fee goes to AiA and Elsinore, and the Materials Fee goes directly to the instructor. The remainder will be split 80/20% between the instructor and AiA. AiA will collect the fees and distribute accordingly:

  • Class Cost per student – Set by instructor and includes any supplied materials
    • Rental Fee – $60
    • Fee Split Amount = Total of revenue collected for Class Cost – Rental Fee
  • Instructor Portion = Fee Split Amount *80%
  • AiA Portion = $60 Rental Fee + (Fee Split Amount *20%)
