CPDC Guidance on Changes in University Operations (e.g., inclement weather, pandemic, etc.)

Career fairs, networking, or other career-related events may be canceled if conditions or circumstances beyond the control of the university arise. These included but are not limited to, acts of God or war, changes in controlling laws, regulations, orders or the requirements of any governmental entity, severe weather conditions, civil disorders, natural disasters, fire, epidemics/pandemics, and quarantines, general strikes throughout the trade or other labor disputes affecting either party, and freight embargoes that would make it unsafe to hold the event and/or the university president elects to close the non-essential operations of the university.

In such circumstances, and to offset incurred fees, organizations will receive a 75 percent refund of their registration fee. In the event the university moves to virtual operations, career-related events may be conducted virtually. If an employer/organization is unable to participate in a virtual capacity, said employer/ organization will be credited the amount of their paid registration towards registration at the next career-related event. All credits must be used within one (1) year of the original event. 

Although caution is advised, attendance at career-related events will be up to the discretion of the attendees. The Career and Professional Development Center will not be responsible for ensuring that organizations or students/alumni/graduates/candidates will attend.

CPDC Refund/Payment Policy for Employers and Organizations

Refunds/cancellations will be granted within ten (10) business days of the event.  Cancellations must be communicated in writing to career-development@iup.edu. Cancellations received after this period will be granted on a case-by-case basis.  Employers/organizations failing to cancel prior to ten (10) business days of the event will result in the employer/organizations being charged the full attendance fee for the event.  Failure to remit funds may result in the organization being bared from on-campus recruitment activities.  

Late Payments 

Employer/Organization invoices are due at the time of the event. Invoices that are 30 days or more overdue will be charged a $50 late fee. This fee may be waived at the discretion of the IUP Career and Professional Development Center.
