Signing up for a training course means that a student only attends the course that they have been registered in at the chosen time slot.Prism offers industry software training (e.g. Microsoft, Nielsen, etc.) that contains multiple sessions that are optional.These sessions are offered to build off of one another or appeal to students of different skill levels.In most cases, students take all the sessions within an industry software if they are interested in the software or to obtain a certification for the software.

If equipment is lost or damaged, members are responsible for notifying the Member Service Desk. Situations are handled based on individual case scenarios. If the cause of damage or loss is negligence on part of the member, they will be responsible for paying up to 100% of the equipment’s purchase price.

Late fines are paid at the Member Service Desk through debit or credit. Members cannot rent equipment or register for courses until all fines are paid. If a fine goes unpaid for an unreasonable amount of time, a hold may be placed on your LORIS account.

The rental period for a laptop and charger is 7 days.The rental period for a camera and accessories is 4 days. All rentals are due before 3:00pm on their due date. One renewal grants you another rental period as long you do so before 3:00pm on the due date. After returning equipment, there is a 24 hour waiting period before members are able to rent that specific item again. However, if available, another item may be rented immediately.

You will be charged a $5 fine per day per item that it is late.For example, if you have rented two items that are due back on the same day, you will be charged $5 for each item, resulting in a $10 late fine if you returned it the day after it was due, $20 late fine for two days after it was due, and so on.

Prism membership is only in effect from the first day of classes until the last day of exams. All equipment must be returned for maintenance and inventory validation, which is completed over the break between semesters. Holding onto equipment between semesters will result in a non-compliance fine.

Prism members are able to take an unlimited amount of courses in a term. Non-members are able to take as many courses as they wish, but will be required to pay the non-member course fee for each course.

You can take our courses as long as you are opted-in to our membership, or pay the non-member course fees (see above). If you are not a full time student taking at least 4 courses during the summer/co-op term, come to our MSR Desk to opt-in for the semester by paying $65.
