Desafortunadamente, es posible que las clases para lograr aptitudes académicas y de computación que no cuenten con una asistencia regular de, al menos, ocho estudiantes se cierren o se combinen. Haremos todo lo posible por acomodar a todos los estudiantes en otra sección. Tenga en cuenta que en ciertas circunstancias, su instructor puede asignar tareas de recuperación para mejorar su tasa de asistencia. 1 Follow us on: facebook.com/32bjtraining @32bjtraining
