TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR TRAINING COURSES
General
ALL bookings should be accompanied by the appropriate booking form. Telephone bookings must be confirmed in writing.
You will receive written confirmation from ourselves, normally within 5 working days of receipt of your request.
Unless agreed in writing payment for any Course is due in full, in sterling, not less than 7 days prior to the commencement of the course. Your booking confirmation will indicate whether a deposit is required.
ALL Course fees and other charges are exclusive of Value Added Tax.
Course candidates may be substituted at any time prior to the commencement of the Course, provided that we are notified in writing.
Cancellations must be made in writing and only take effect on date of receipt. If a cancellation is received at least 2 weeks before the start of a Course, 30% of the agreed fees will be charged. If a cancellation is received at least 1 week before the Course, 60% of agreed fees will be charged. If cancellation is received at least 2 days before the Course, 80% of agreed fees will be charged.
The Full Course fee will be due for cancellations with less than 2 days notice or for non attendance.
We reserve the right to cancel an Open Course if insufficient bookings are received 7 days prior to the course when a full refund of Course fees will be made. We also reserve the right to cancel a booking or a Course for non-payment of fee in addition to our rights under 5 above.
We reserve the right not to admit or to expel candidates without liability if in our absolute discretion their behaviour is inconsistent with our reputation or the management of the course.
We reserve the right to change the content and timetable of a Course if, in doing so, the objectives of the Course can be better met. Where practicable we will notify you of any proposed changes.
Each candidate must inform us in writing at least 14 days prior to a Course of any medical condition which may affect them or others (e.g. epilepsy, diabetes). We will keep such information in confidence.
In addition for courses that may involve physical activity, it is the responsibility of each candidate to take appropriate medical advice to ensure that they are fit to take part.
We shall have no liability for any consequence of force majeure including but not limited to severe weather, acts of Government, strikes, transport delays, unavailability of personnel due to illness.
These conditions apply to the provision of Training Courses to the exclusion of all other terms whether in writing or otherwise, unless both parties agree other specific written terms and conditions.
This contract is construed under Scots Law.
