HandsOn Therapy recognizes that any dispute that may arise between a student and the school should be resolved as quickly and amicably as possible. The initial attempt to resolve any dispute will be in accordance to the Grievance Procedure as stated in the school catalogue. If the dispute cannot be resolved through the Grievance Procedure, then the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration. (Arbitration is the referral of a dispute to one or more impartial persons for a final and binding determination and is designed for a quick, practical and inexpensive resolution of claims.)
