Cancellations

Information on cancellations policies

Cancelling a course place

We understand that your circumstances can change. However, to safeguard our public funds and manage costs, we have a strict cancellation policy. Any places that are not filled due to cancellations or no-shows still incur costs for us, for example, venues, teaching materials, and facilitator fees.

Your responsibility

  • When you book a free or paid event, you agree to this cancellation policy.
  • It is your responsibility to cancel or reschedule your booking through your account.
  • Cancellations must be made within the required notice period to avoid fees.

Special circumstances

  • If you need to cancel due to illness or other extenuating circumstances, you will not be charged a fee, but we may ask for evidence.
  • If a course has multiple sessions and you miss one, you may be charged a fee to complete it later.
  • You will receive an invoice for any fees owed.

What if we cancel a course?

  • If we cancel or change a course date, you will be offered a full refund if applicable.
  • We are not responsible for other costs you may have, such as travel or accommodation. You may want to consider insurance for such expenses.
  • We may cancel your place with notice if you are unsuitable for the course, your conduct is unprofessional, you fail to attend satisfactorily, or you do not complete the mandatory pre-course work.
  • Very occasionally, we may need to make changes to a course’s schedule or teachers without advance notice.
