I belong to three guilds. The program chairs have a yearly budget. She schedules workshops and programs from that budget. It doesn't matter how many show up for a workshop, the fee is paid in full regardless. It was budgeted so no loss of money if the class was full or not. Each workshop member pays a nominal fee to the guild to take the workshop, pay the day of the workshop. A sign up sheet is presented before the workshop in case there may be too many sign up that goes past the instructor's limit. I won't belong to a guild that has to have the class members pay the total cost of a workshop fee with the class cost. That should be a guild cost paid for by the efforts of the members fundraising.
