+  * If they charge <= $15 for the class, the instructor pays no class fee to The Bodgery..
-  * However, an exception was made for red tool checkoffs.
+  * If they charge over $15/student for teaching fees (separate from materials fees), there will be a $5/student fee paid to The Bodgery.
+  * Classes can also be offered for free to Bodgery members, at the instructor's choosing. The Bodgery is not paid anything for these classes.
+  * For multi-session classes, that $5 Bodgery fee is paid once for the entire set of sessions of the class, not per session.
+  * If a class includes getting checked off on a red tool, then no fee is paid by the instructor to The Bodgery, regardless of whether they charge for the class.
+  * Regardless of whether the class is offered for a fee or not, the instructor can charge a materials fee, beyond the teaching fee, if they are supplied by the instructor. Similarly, if the class uses consumables normally charged for by the training area (laser cutter time, 3D printing filament, welding time), those fees are paid by the student.
+  * Members pay the amount listed for the class. Non-members may be charged 25% more than members are charged. Students who pay and do not attend, forfeit their class fees unless a refund policy is listed in the class description. Classes may allow cancellation up to 3 days before the scheduled class.
