How to Register for an “In-Person” Pre-Discharge Bankruptcy Education Course in Either Macon or Warner Robins, Georgia

Course Registration

All participants are required to register and pay for the pre-discharge education course in advance of a scheduled workshop. This assures that a seat and materials are reserved for each participant. This may be done in person or by telephone at either our Macon or Warner Robins locations*. Payments for registration made in person must be in the form of a personal check, money order or cashier’s check. Payments for registration made via telephone will be processed through TeleCheck using the “check-by-phone” method, which means funds must be available at the time of registration. In order to register for one of our courses, you must have the following items available at the time of registration:

1. A $40 (per participant) non-refundable registration fee. Funds must be available to pay for the course. If funds are not available at the time you call or come in, you will need to contact us to register once funds are available for payment.

2. Original Creditor (341) Meeting date or date you went or are scheduled to go to court. Date that the original creditor meeting was scheduled; If the 341 meeting date was ever rescheduled, you will need to know the original date for which it was scheduled.

3. Bankruptcy case number (seven digit number with a hyphen after the first two numbers -- E.g. 07-12345)

4. Name and telephone number of your bankruptcy attorney.

Course Compensation

Each participant will be required to pay a non-refundable $40 course fee prior to taking the actual course. The fee will include the cost of instruction, educational workbooks, classroom supplies and a certificate of completion. The $40 fee may be waived in limited cases.

About the Course

Only participants who have properly registered and paid in advance of the workshop will be allowed in the classroom. No “walk-in” participants will be accepted in the course, nor will any participants who bring children. Upon entering the workshop, each participant will be required by CCCS to show a valid picture identification, to present his/her bankruptcy case number, and to sign in on an attendance sheet. Participants must also bring an ink pen to complete coursework throughout the class. Each session will be limited to 30 students to promote a quality learning environment and to allow the instructor enough time to adequately address individual concerns and questions. Each course will last approximately 3.5 hours. Any participant who is late or absent during any portion of the class, will be required to take the course at another time during which they can be present for the entire duration.

Facilities

Pre-Discharge Bankruptcy Education Programs are taught at two different middle Georgia locations. These sites are located in Macon and Warner Robins, Georgia. The course site in Macon is the Peyton Anderson Community Services Building, located at 277 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. W., Macon GA 31201, directly across the street from the Georgia Music Hall of Fame. The location for these programs in Warner Robins is in the board room of our satellite office, located at 748 N. Houston Rd., Suite H, Warner Robins, GA 31093. Both buildings have facilities, including entry areas and restrooms that are completely handicapped accessible, both inside and out. In addition, the Macon location is located near public transportation. Public transportation is not available in Warner Robins. Each building has a generous amount of convenient parking spaces and designated areas for those who may be physically challenged.

Course Certification

At the end of the course, each participant who completed the entire session will be awarded a certificate of completion. Each participant is then responsible for presenting the certificate of completion to his or her attorney or to the court so that a petition can be filed to complete the discharge. If a participant loses his/her certificate or if a replacement or duplicate is warranted, a $10 replacement fee will be charged and the certificate must be reissued by the instructor or supervisor of the course, who will validate the participant’s participation in the said course.
