Cancellation and No-Show Policy

We understand that real world operations can be unpredictable and may result in a person being unable to attend training which they have register for. In these cases we simply ask that you notify MANTA at least 48 hours prior to the start of training. This will allow us time to contact the waitlist. Any student who fails to notify MANTA and is not present during the start of training will be considered a “no-show.” This is extremely detrimental to our mission as no-shows take away training opportunities from other law enforcement officers. MANTA maintains a roster of all no-shows and repeat offenders could result in negative consequences for both the individual and the agency they represent in regards to future training opportunities.

 

MANTA training is provided free of charge to Law Enforcement Officers through the NC National Guard Counterdrug Program.
