E-mail usPayment Policy
Effective for all programs after 1 January 2022, Due to new IRS and state regulations we have updated tuition and registration fee payment information.
Payment methods: We accept credit cards and payment with Square using (G Pay, Cash App), cash, checks, and the Zelle phone app for mobile payment.
Credit cards: ISA accepts credit cards from pre-screened and approved government agencies, and are not the preferred or standard way we accept tuition payments from individual students. Individual students may request authorization to pay by credit card by contacting us at 315-486-7854 or via e-mail at [email protected], and you must have a credit card payment authorization form on file.
Students can find a copy of the form on the web site by logging in: https://www.eptraining.us/login/ Note: You will need to request a username and password for access or request a form via email.
To comply with, and cover the costs associated with the new IRS tax regulations, we have instituted a 3% surcharge on all credit card payments for tuition.
The registration fee: Non-refundable (Government and law enforcement agencies may request a waiver)
This fee may be required to secure a seat in a training program, and is credited to your tuition payment on attending. Individual students may request a waiver of the fee but it is not guaranteed. The registration fee is $250.00 for all classes over $800.00
Due no later than ten (10) days from the first day of training. This allows groups, agencies and departments the opportunity to substitute, add or remove students without penalty.

Why Zelle?
Because business is being conducted more and more on the move using smartphones and tablets, and current trends have already shown a remarkable reduction in the use of debit/credit cards, and an increase in the use of smart devices to pay for goods and services. We believe this will carry over into the security industry so it’s better to fully embrace these changes now than be left standing alone with an unused credit card terminal.
Primary method: The Zelle cell phone app https://www.zellepay.com/ payments should be sent to phone number 315-486-7854, you will receive an automatic confirmation of payment and we will send you a receipt.
Credit Cards: Reminder, request a credit card payment authorization form by emailing [email protected] or call 315-486-7854
Official Government and pre-approved agencies: We accept credit cards through Square, links are below.
Note: At ISA we take issue with the fees and other costs imposed on merchants and their customers by the credit card companies. 2% cashback hardly covers the interest rates on most cards, and we as vendors have to pay 2.0%-3.5% fees or higher to accept cards, and with new compliance regulations there are new administrative and accounting costs. For those reasons we were forced to institute a 3% surcharge on all credit card tuition payments IAW State and Federal law.
