Reglamento – Cursos de Inglés ATS Pagos

- Por seguridad los pagos en efectivo deben ser realizados directamente en el banco, o en

recepción con tarjeta de crédito o débito.

- No se aceptan cheques. - A partir del SEGUNDO MES de estudio, su pago debe ser realizado LOS PRIMEROS 5 días

de cada mes, de lo contrario se cancelarán Q5 (cinco quetzales) por cada día de atraso en

el pago. Por ejemplo, si cancela el día siete (7) del mes, debe multiplicar dos (2) días de

atraso por Q5 (cinco quetzales) lo que dará por total Q10 (diez quetzales) adicionales a la

mensualidad. Por favor, tomar nota de lo anterior ya que no se harán excepciones. - Los cargos por atraso en pago se llevan a cabo no importando si durante los primeros

cinco (5) días del mes hay feriados, asuetos o es domingo.

- Las mensualidades de enero y diciembre se cancelan en su totalidad (incluyendo el

recargo por atraso en pago, si hubiera).

- No se hace devolución de dinero.

Sistema de Evaluación - Durante el curso se realizan entrevistas para asesorar al alumno y comprobar que su nivel

de comunicación verbal (lenguaje hablado) sea equivalente a por lo menos el nivel

gramatical que contiene el curso. Dichas entrevistas no tienen punteo, más se le brinda el

resultado al alumno para que sea consciente de su progreso.

- Al finalizar cada curso se realiza un examen escrito sobre cien puntos, el cual se aprueba

con una nota mínima de setenta y cinco (75).

- Al aprobar el examen final con al menos setenta y cinco (75) puntos, se le otorga un

certificado indicando el curso aprobado y la calificación obtenida.

- Los resultados y certificados se entregan el mismo día de la evaluación, durante el período de clase. El alumno debe esperar ya que ningún resultado se entrega por vía

telefónica o en otro horario ajeno al asignado.

- Los resultados y certificados se entregan únicamente a los alumnos que estén al día en sus

pagos.

- En caso de no poder asistir en la fecha del examen final o de no obtener la calificación

mínima (setenta y cinco puntos), el alumno tiene una única oportunidad adicional para

tomar un examen de recuperación. Dicho examen tiene un costo de Q35 (treinta y cinco

quetzales) y se realiza después de las fechas de los exámenes finales.

Certificados Todo certificado otorgado al aprobar un curso, tiene una vigencia de hasta seis meses. Todo

alumno que se retire de la academia por más de seis meses a partir de la fecha del certificado,

deberá tomar un examen de ubicación y cumplir con el proceso de inscripción nuevamente al

momento de querer retomar el programa. La entrega del certificado es personal.

Reposición de Clase En ATS estamos conscientes que nuestros alumnos cuentan con diversos compromisos laborales,

académicos o personales. Así también, las emergencias e imprevistos se suceden sin aviso alguno.

Por tanto, brindamos el beneficio de una reposición de clase presencial. Para optar por el mismo el

alumno debe cumplir con lo siguiente:


� 2312-3679

B

- La reposición de clase está disponible a partir de la segunda clase del curso. Durante la primera clase no se brinda reposición.

- Llamar durante la semana en la cual se repondrá la clase para confirmar horarios y cupos

disponibles. Si los hay, se procederá a reservarle ese espacio para que pueda asistir en

otro horario.

- La reposición se lleva a cabo el mismo fin de semana. Nuestra calendarización es semanal,

por lo que el contenido visto el sábado es el mismo que se cubre en domingo.

- Si el alumno no avisa con anticipación pero se presenta a reponer clase, deberá esperar a

que el personal administrativo confirme espacios disponibles en el salón del curso, previo

a ser guiado(a) al mismo.

- Si un alumno solicita reposición de clase y no asiste, será anotado en el sistema de

asistencia. Al sumar dos solicitudes sin presentarse a las mismas, le será revocado el

beneficio de reposición de clase presencial durante el resto del trimestre. Si el caso se

repitiera por tercera ocasión durante un trimestre diferente, le será revocado el beneficio

durante el resto del programa.

- Todo alumno que no pueda asistir a su clase en horario oficial ni pueda optar a una

reposición de clase presencial (bajo cualquier circunstancia), puede ver el contenido visto

en clase en nuestro sitio web: www.cursosats.com

Cambios de Horario - Los horarios se modifican cada trimestre, tomando en cuenta la cantidad de alumnos que

hay en cada grupo. La cantidad mínima para mantener el horario de un grupo es de quince (15) alumnos. Es importante que el grupo sea consciente de la responsabilidad que

tienen tanto para sí mismos como con sus compañeros para poder completar su

preparación.

- Todo alumno tiene la opción de cambiar su horario solamente una vez por trimestre. Para

ello se deben cumplir los siguientes requisitos:

o Este trámite es personal. o Estar al día en sus pagos y haber cancelado el primer mes del siguiente curso

(inscripción).

o Llenar la hoja de Solicitud de Cambio de Horario, la cual se entrega en la oficina al

presentar su comprobante de pago (si fue en efectivo). Si el pago se realiza con

tarjeta, el alumno deberá llenar la solicitud el mismo instante en que se inscribe.

o El cambio se realiza durante el período de inscripciones para el siguiente

trimestre. La última fecha para solicitarlo es el día de cierre de inscripción

(indicada en su calendario del curso).

o El alumno será informado, previo a realizar cualquier cambio, de la disponibilidad

de horarios para el curso. No se aceptan cambios de horario realizados por el alumno sin haber notificado a la Academia de su intención para el mismo.

basurero) así como el mal uso de los baños. Es importante respetar y cuidar nuestras

instalaciones, ya que son compartidas por todos los compañeros de clase, así como el

resto del estudiantado.

- Está prohibido el uso de cargadores de dispositivos móviles (teléfonos celulares, iPod,

laptops, etc.).

- Se prohíbe la permanencia de todo alumno una vez terminado su período de clase. Los

horarios deben ser respetados ya que al terminar la misma, otros alumnos harán uso del

salón. Así también, a las 5:00 p.m. (cinco de la tarde) se cierran las instalaciones y nadie

puede permanecer en las mismas.

situaciones de la vida real.
