Health and Safety

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the focus at Scaling Up LLC has been the health and safety of our customers, staff, and communities. Vaccinations have reduced many of the COVID-19 guidelines/mandates regarding face masks, social distancing, and travel. In many states and cities, guidelines/mandates have been completely eliminated.

​As Scaling Up LLC moves forward with producing live meetings and conferences, we will continue to monitor the continually evolving guidance released by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as well as all federal, state, and local government mandates, to provide an environment that is as safe as possible for all event participants.

For live trainings, Scaling Up LLC allows the trainer of that event to decide whether or not a COVID-19 vaccination is required to attend the training live. This is to ensure the safety of the trainer, their families and participants. If a participant wants to attend live, but is not fully vaccinated before the live Training, then we ask that you refrain from attending in-person, and rather attend through live streaming online (when available) or through our on-demand Training.

By participating in person, I agree to follow the meeting’s health and safety policies as mandated by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the federal, state, and local government.​
