Join the BCAE for “Behind The Curtain,” an ongoing series where students receive exclusive opportunities to tour Boston’s historic theaters and attend world class performances!

Attending a Commonwealth shakespeare Company (CsC) performance on the Boston Common is a summer tradition for countless Bostonians. On Friday, July 27, BCAE students can go one step further for this summer’s production, Coriolanus.

BCAE students will receive a backstage tour of CsC’s outdoor stage located at the Parkman Bandstand on the Boston Common, access to a pre-show talk with the cast and crew of the Coriolanus, and exclusive vIP seating (no need to bring a blanket this year, you’ll get a chair).

You think tweeting is for the birds. You find it a little cruel that a program that makes you feel incompetent would ever be dubbed “Excel.” Truth be told, you’re even still a little stuck on why you have to press “start” in order to “shut down.” Obviously, it’s time to get you schooled in the world of computers. The majority of the BCAE’s classes are for bona fide beginners; here are a few specifically designed with YOU in mind.

Want to ditch the day-job drudgery to follow your dream? start by spending the evening with two Bos-tonians who did just that! Tired of not being challenged at their desk jobs, friends Rachel and Leigh began to look for a way out. Both life-long foodies, they discovered a shared passion for fresh pasta and local ingredients and decided to pursue it. It was from this passion that Nella Pasta was born, and two years later, they’re thriving. You’ll leave class knowledgeable about the Nella narrative, and inspired by your own potential to turn your dreams into your job!

Looking to climb the ladder? Take your first step here at the BCAE! We offer a wide range of professional development classes across every category. No matter what your current position or field we’ll help you master the skills that can give you an edge. Browse our full course listings on-line at www.bcae.org. This term we recommend:

CoURSE CANCELLATioNSWe occasionally have to cancel classes due to low enrollment. In the event we cancel your class, you may either request a credit or a refund in full for that class or transfer into another class, space permit-ting. If you transfer into a class that’s more expensive than the cancelled one, you’ll be responsible for any difference in tuition or fees. If your new class is less expensive, you may request a credit or a refund of the difference.

TRANSFERSWe permit transfers from one class to another, but only if there is still space available in the new class, if both classes occur during the same term, and if you request the transfer at least five (5) business days before the first session of the class for which you’ve already registered. Transfer requests must be submitted in person or by phone to our student services office during normal business hours (see below). You will be responsible for any difference in tuition or materials fees if the new class is more expensive than the one from which you’re transfer-ring; if your new class is less expensive, we’ll apply the difference as a credit towards your future registra-tions. Transfers are non-refundable, and no transfers are allowed for off-site classes.

WiThdRAWALSIf you withdraw from a class at least five (5) busi-ness days before the first session, you may be eligible for a full credit or refund for the tuition and materials fee you have paid for the class. Withdrawal requests must be submitted in person or by phone to our student services office during normal busi-ness hours (see below). Withdrawal requests that are received less than five (5) business days prior to the first session may qualify for a partial credit or refund, subject to additional requirements. For details, please refer to the full withdrawal and refund policy that appears on our website: www.bcae.org. Off-site classes are non-refundable, as are classes for which our catalog says, “no discounts, transfers, or credits apply.” Please note that our $7 per person per term registration fee is not refundable.

STUdENT SERviCESAll transfer, credit, and withdrawal requests must be made in person or by phone (617-267-4430) through our student services office during its normal business hours: Monday–Thursday, 9:00am–7:00pm; Friday, 9:00am–5:00pm. Requests made outside these hours, including weekends and holidays, will not be accepted or processed.

CREdiTS & REFUNdSAll credit and refund requests must be made in person or by phone to our student services office during normal business hours (see above). Credits are valid for only one year from the date of issue. Refunds will be issued by check unless you request a refund to your credit card within two (2) days of your class’s cancellation. Please allow 2-4 weeks for check refunds to be pro-cessed. BCAE memberships are non-refundable.
