With approval by Management, part payments for this course can be arranged, two instalments only, with the first payment on the day of enrolment and the last payment due prior to the commencement of the course. If full payment is not received prior to the commencement of the course, then the student will be withdrawn.

Fee balances are recorded at the bottom of the enrolment confirmation letter. If you require an official receipt of your payment please request via reply email, as this is not sent automatically.

In the event a class is cancelled, all students will be notified with the option to reschedule. If rescheduling is unsuccessful full refunds will be provided.

There are no refunds for withdrawals less than 7 days before the course commences.
