In the event that a class must be rescheduled due to unforeseen circumstances, such as, but not limited to, weather or the Instructor’s illness, your class will be rescheduled. This may extend the number of weeks that it will take to complete the Course and it is your responsibility to adjust your schedule in order to attend all classes. No credit or refund will be given for missed or rescheduled class time. In the even that you must drop out of the class, you may ask to retake the missed portions during the next offering, provided you arrange for this before you leave the last class you attend.

It is the policy of the Martin Kiely Hypnosis Centre to accept electronic signatures as defined within this policy for author validation of documentation, content accuracy and completeness with all the associated ethical, business, and legal implications. This process operates within a secured infrastructure, ensuring integrity of process and minimizing risk of unauthorized activity in the design, use, and access of the electronic health records.

Purpose:

To establish a foundation for technical and human interaction policy and procedure decisions to guide legal and compliant electronic signature processes. To improve signature legibility, facilitate the use of electronic signatures for client records generated during hypnosis sessions, validate information accuracy and completeness, verify the identification and appropriateness of electronic record authors, and support nonrepudiation.

Scope:

Electronic signature, attestation, and authorship are referred to in this document as e-signature. Individuals authorized to affix an electronic signature to a documentation or record shall be limited to individuals with defined privileges.

Policy Statement:

Electronic signature is used for records as a means of attestation of electronic record entries, transcribed documents, and computer-generated documents. Properly executed electronic signatures are considered legally binding as a means to identify the author of record entries, confirm content accuracy and completeness as intended by the author, and to ensure e-signature integrity is maintained for the life of the electronic record.

Types of E-Signatures:

The policy delineates the types of e-signature functionality acceptable for use in the Martin Kiely Hypnosis Centre and the method of organization approval of each type prior to initial use.

A properly executed electronic process signifying an approval of an entry or document content presented in electronic format may encompass a broad gamut of technologies and methodologies, ranging from an “I agree” button in a click-through agreement, to an electronic tablet that accepts a handwritten digitized signature, to a digital signature cryptographically tied to a digital ID or certificate.

Acceptable and approved functional types may include:

Biometric:

Use of biological data, such as fingerprints, handprints, retinal scans, and pen strokes, to authenticate an individual.

Digital signature:

A cryptographic signature (a digital key) that authenticates the user, provides nonrepudiation, and ensures message integrity. This is the strongest signature because it protects the signature by a type of “tamper-proof seal” that breaks if the message content were to be altered.

Digitized signature:

An electronic representation of a handwritten signature. The image of a handwritten signature may be created and saved using various methods, such as using a signature pad, scanning a wet signature, or digital photography. The signature may be “captured” in real time (at the time the user applies the signature), or a saved image captured at the point of normal business operations may be imported. The digitized signature is useful for client signatures that must be collected for consent, application forms or any other type of electronic form requiring client signature.
