The difference in cost will be applied as a credit on  your account which can be applied to future course purchases. However, we will require that if the new course fee is greater than that of the discontinued course, the balance should be paid in full along with a standard £40 transfer fee.

Whilst we make utmost efforts to ensure the accuracy of the Training Materials, we do not represent, warrant, or guarantee that the Training Materials will be completely error free. In circumstances where you discover an error or inaccuracy in the content contained in the Training Materials and/or the Learning Platform please notify us at the earliest opportunity. 

Due to the nature and timeline of education, Training Materials and/or Practical Lessons may require updating at any time to ensure compliance with industry best practice and awarding body requirements. If any changes are made to your course, we will aim to inform you as soon as reasonably possible but will not incur any additional liability to you. 

In the circumstance a unit or exam is due to be retired by us or an external vendor we will aim to inform you as soon as is reasonably possible the deadline for completion but will not incur any additional liability to you.
