Payment terms
All course fees must be paid in full at the time of booking. We accept major debit and credit cards. We are happy to invoice companies directly, but once again the fees must be paid in full at the time of booking. Once booked, the price of the course is guaranteed and will be free of surcharges.
Your place will be reserved on the course when we receive your booking confirmation and you will receive an email confirming your course booking. We reserve the right to offer you an alternative course location (or a full refund) in the event we do not meet our minimum number of 8 delegates per course.
Non-attendance
If you do not attend a course for whatever reason and you have not previously informed us, a refund is not available.
Late arrivals and missed sessions
If you arrive late for the course or are absent from any session, we reserve the right to refuse to accept you if the Course Director feels you will gain insufficient knowledge or skill in the time remaining. In all such cases, the full course fee remains payable.
