Financial Guidelines for the PL and the PIA Classes



- In an effort to standardize the dues/fees collected in all Greater New York Conference PLA/PIA classes, we have identified two categories of cost: Items Provided by Instructor and Potential Differential Costs.

- Items provided by instructor must be provided in all Greater New York Conference PLA/PIA classes.

- Potential differential costs are those that are specific to individual classes.

- The total cost for each class is $45/candidate (Item Provided by Instructor - rounded) plus any differential cost that may be provided by a specific class.

- All payments are non-refundable and must be paid before investiture. If payments are not made before investiture, candidate will not be invested.

- Dues paid apply to the current year only and are not transferable.
