When course fees are paid in instalments, any refund payable on withdrawal will be net of outstanding course fees.
Where a student requests to withdraw, the course leader should be notified. The course leader will liaise with the admin team to confirm (a) the course fee that has been paid (b) the refundable amount (if any). They will then contact the student to offer advice as to options for continuation or withdrawal, and the refund applicable.
Where a student is withdrawn by the мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±, they should be notified of possible withdrawal by the course leader. The course leader will first liaise with the admin team to confirm (a) the course fee that has been paid (b) the refundable amount (if any) and will communicate this to the student.
The Course Leader will record withdrawal agreed date and reason for withdrawal for monitoring purposes and reporting.
Deferrals
The мÓÆÂÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½± will only provide the option to defer all or part of the
course to a later date in exceptional circumstances, such as a medical
condition which impacts on the ability to study, significant and
unexpected change in personal or work circumstances, etc.
In the
case of exceptional circumstances, which can be appropriately evidenced,
the course leader may recommend a review by the Head of Accredited
Training, before agreeing the deferral. In the event that a deferral is
offered, the student will be required to pay any relevant increase in
course fees in order to resume the course. In some cases, students may
be required to restart their course, depending on how many and which
tasks or assignments have been completed prior to deferral.
