FAQ: How to Join a CEL Circle
1. How do I join a CEL Circle?
Joining a CEL Circle is simple! Begin by pre-registering for the circle that best suits your needs. Visit our website, select the circle you’re interested in, and complete the pre-registration form.
2. What happens after I pre-register?
Once you pre-register, we’ll confirm your interest and notify you as soon as the minimum number of participants (6 people) is reached. We’ll then share the start date, time, and other details.
3. How long will it take for the circle to start?
The start date depends on how quickly the group fills up. We’ll keep you updated on the progress and aim to start circles as soon as possible once enough participants are confirmed.
4. What if my chosen circle doesn’t fill up?
If a circle doesn’t reach the minimum number of participants within a set time, we’ll offer you the choice to transfer to a similar circle, join an online version, or receive a full refund if payment has been made.
5. Do I need to pay when I pre-register?
No, payment is only required once the circle is confirmed and ready to start. We’ll provide all payment details at that time.
6. Can I pre-register for multiple circles?
Yes, you’re welcome to pre-register for more than one circle if you feel they align with your needs. Just keep in mind that you’ll only need to commit to one once the circles are confirmed.
7. How will I know if my registration is successful?
You’ll receive a confirmation email once your pre-registration is submitted, followed by updates on the status of the circle and next steps.
8. Can I invite others to join?
Absolutely! If you know someone who might benefit from the circle, encourage them to pre-register too. The more interest we receive, the faster circles can begin.
