Terms and Conditions for Booking Courses

1. To reserve a place on a course, you must complete an online application form and then pay a non-refundable/non-transferable deposit of UK£30 for UK weekend courses or UK£200 for overseas trips (or a higher fee as specified for longer courses), within ten days from the date of your application. Your place will only be confirmed once the deposit has been recieved and this will then hold your place until the balance is due. If the deposit is not recieved within ten days, the place will be re-advertised or offered to another. If you wish, you may pay the full amount at the time of booking... Required if you are booking within a month from the course date (two months for overseas trips).

2. The balance must be paid by one month before the start date of the applied for course (or two months for overseas trips). If it is not received by the required date, you will lose your deposit and the place will be offered to someone else.

3. If we cancel the course for any reason, you will be fully refunded the course fees you have paid. (or transferred to another course, if you'd prefer.)

4. If you cancel your place and we have enough notice to find a replacement, or you cancel over one month from the course date (two months for overseas trips), your balance will be refunded or transferred to another course (the deposit fee will always be held to cover admin costs and re-advertising to fill the place).

5. If you cancel within a month from the course date (two months for overseas trips) and we are unable to find a replacement you will lose the full fee.

6. If you do not turn up for the course, for whatever reason, you will lose the full fee.

NB. Deposits are not refundable or transferrable unless the course is cancelled by us.

These terms and conditions enable us to run courses for set numbers of people at the lowest possible cost per student.

The course fees are at set prices and so the full amount must be received by us after any and all fees involved in the transfer. For PayPal, an additional 3.5% must be added and for international bank transfers, the sender must make sure current exchange rates and charges are properly taken into account when sending the funds. Any shortfall must be paid in cash at the start of the course.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel an application at our discretion.
