Attendance and Time Policies
Amarillo College AMT program must follow the guidelines per the FAA requirements for AMT schools; therefore, all course time must be accounted for. Daily attendance reports will be made to show the students time. Due to the AMT course outlines and schedule a student can only miss 10% of the required individual course hours. Example: AERM 2447 is a 128 hours course, therefore, you can only miss 12.8 hours. Also per FAA guidelines AMT class can only be taught / held a maximum of 8 hours per day.
Punctual and regular attendance is a requirement in all classroom, laboratory and shop sessions. Excused absences are: sickness or injury, with a doctor's statement or at the discretion of the Accountable Manager. All other absences and tardy are unexcused. Any "No Call, No Show" for class will be considered unexcused.
Note: If needed the Accountable Manager can and will make recommendations for make-up time scheduling regardless of excused or unexcused absence on a case by case basis.
When a student's lack of attendance results in failure to satisfactorily complete course objectives, the student will be warned in writing that he/she may fail the course unless arrangements are made with the instructor.
Time will be made up at the discretion of the instructor based upon their instructional work load. Make up time and material must occur before the Final grade is issued. For example, a student may score 100% on all quizzes, exams, and projects; however, an "I" (incomplete) shall be awarded as a grade until all time is made up. Each 6 minutes equals 0.1 hours.
Final exam will not be taken until all time (including the time missed during the final exam) for the course is made up.
1. EXCUSED ABSENCES during a regular exam or quiz will be made up without penalty. Make-up exam or quiz will be taken at the CONVENIENCE of the instructor.
Make-up time for any amount of time will be made up on Saturday 11/14/2020 0730-1400 Maximum 6.5 hours. Additional make-up time on Sunday 11/15/2020 0730-1350 Maximum 6.3 hours. Hours cannot be split between the two days. All students must report for make-up time on Saturday 11/14/2020 @ 0730. Students arriving late will be considered tardy.
UNEXCUSED ABSENCES during a regular exam or final exam will result in a maximum possible test grade of 70 percent, when the test is taken.
Unexcused Make-up time: See make-up time as listed under "Excused" time.
3. Daily classroom / shop break times will be given at the instructors discretion. Without prior arrangements students returning late after break time ends will be considered absent (unexcused) and may be required to make up the time.
4. Unless prior arrangements have been made; restroom break time should be limited to the minimal amount of time, excessive use or time away from class / shop could result in the (unexcused) time being made up.
Tardiness
Time missed by any student arriving in class after the scheduled start time shall be made up before he/she is awarded a Final Grade. All time shall be made-up. For example, if a student is one to six minutes late, 0.1 hours shall be deducted from the student's attendance record. If seven minutes late, the student shall be docked 0.2 hours and so on.
Repeated Tardiness
A student's tardiness, (3 or more), may result in:
1. A written warning against further tardiness from the instructor.
2. Being placed on probation for the course.
3. Being issued a grade of "F" for the course.
The instructor may choose to begin class/lecture by securing the classroom door to prevent interruptions by late arriving students. It is in the student's best interest to be in class early.
If a student arrives late and is "locked out", he/she may rejoin the class at the next scheduled break time. Attendance begins when the student rejoins the class
Grade points (assigned according to the performance of a student in each course as dictated by industry)
A - Excellent performance (100 - 90 ) = 4.00 grade points
B - Above job entry level ( 89 - 80 ) = 3.00 grade point
C - Minimum requirement ( 79 - 70 ) = 2.00 grade points
F - Below job entry level ( 69 - 0 ) = 0 grade points
Weighted Grade
1. Theory Average (average of all exams and final exam)- - - 1/3 of final grade
2. Shop Average (average of all projects) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1/3 of final grade
3. Quiz Average (average of quizzes)- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1/3 of final grade
Grade Calculation Procedure
1. Add Quizzes then divide by the total number of quizzes to calculate Quiz Average.
2. Add all Exams, Regular Exams and the Final Exam to calculate Exam Average.
3. Add Exam Average and Final Exam Grade then divide by two to obtain Theory Average.
4. Add all Project grades then divide by the total number of projects to calculate Shop Grade average.
5. Add Theory Average, Shop Grade Average and Quiz Average then divide by three to calculate the Course Average.

East Campus Code of Professional Conduct
Amarillo College has the responsibility to provide you with the education, training and “hands on” practice to become a professional in your chosen field. The instruction, equipment, facilities and apparatus are provided for your use. Studying, practicing and learning are required by you.
As a participating student in Amarillo College Technical Programs, you will be expected to act, perform and train in a professional manner. The following rules and guidelines are to be followed by everyone.
Attendance:
Unless it is an emergency, it is highly recommended that you do not miss class. Recovery of missed information will be the responsibility of the student. Class begins at the scheduled time. If you are not in your seat in class or at the designated location during laboratory exercises, you will be counted as tardy. The student will be required to show an acceptable understanding of the topic(s) covered during their absence. Check syllabus for your instructor’s policy regarding attendance.
Professional Attire: Every student will be required to wear an approved AC logo shirt to both class and lab. Shirts must be ordered through your advisor during the registration period. It is recommended that each student purchase one shirt for every class in which they are registered.
Pants will be:
• clean and well maintained • no large rips or tears • held at the waist (i.e no sagging) • blue jeans or long pants (no sweats/exercise pants) • have no hanging chains/loose strings (safety issue)
You are expected to reflect the dignity, pride and respectfulness of an industry professional. As a representative of Amarillo College’s Technical Education Program you shall wear your AC logo shirt while in the classroom and on the training field or in the laboratory.
There will be no caps, hats, bandanas, beanies, or hoods allowed to be worn in the classroom. Lab attire will be determined by your instructor. Please check your syllabus.
Your Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) shall be worn when indicated by the instructor in charge during any training, field, or laboratory exercises.
It is your responsibility to keep your equipment clean and in good shape.
Required professional attire is mandatory for class and laboratory participation.
Tools / Equipment / Books / Supplies / PPE:
You must show up to class with the required list of tools/equipment/books/supplies/PPE listed on your syllabus in order to be allowed to participate and earn credit for the day.
Conduct: Due to the importance of maintaining a safe atmosphere in the training field/laboratory environment as well as in the classroom, any disruptive behavior will not be tolerated. All students are expected to be respectful, courteous, attentive and quiet in order to support the learning environment.
There shall be no smoking except in designated areas and during designated breaks.
Students shall refrain from the use of abusive or slanderous language.
There is to be no horseplay, fighting, harassment or misconduct by anyone.
Any student who uses, has in their possession, or is under the influence of illegal drugs or alcohol on campus or at the training field will immediately be turned over to the campus police for appropriate action. This will be a ZERO tolerance policy with immediate steps taken toward withdrawal from Amarillo College.
Anyone who is caught cheating on an exam or quiz will immediately be excused from class and not allowed to return. This is an Amarillo College rule and will be strictly enforced. This applies to plagiarism as well.
Electronic Devices: All electronic devices which produce audible sounds must be silenced during class and on the laboratory/training field.
All visual slides and materials are the property of the instructor and may be copyright protected, hence no photocopy is allowed.
See the syllabus for your instructor’s policy on this matter.
Grievances:
Any student who feels that there is a conflict with a course instructor should first make every effort to resolve that matter with the instructor. If you are unable to resolve differences then you should seek resolution from the immediate supervisor of the instructor or the course coordinator.
NOTE: Compliance with the Amarillo College Technical Education Code of Professional Conduct is mandatory for class participation.
