At all times, it is the Student’s responsibility to have necessary access to Internet and to e-mail.
2. Course amendments
The School reserves the right to make amendments to the course. The content of a course may be changed and the teacher may be replaced at any time. Amendments to the course or change of teacher does not entitle the Student to any reimbursements from the School.

In order to identify the returned books or material, a copy of the invoice or other information with the Student’s name and address should be enclosed. Refund for any sums paid will be made within 30 days of the School receiving the notification of withdrawal and receiving books and/or other course material.

The School’s courses are valid for a period of twelve months. The relevant period of validity is stated in the course syllabus. This means that the Student has twelve months to complete the course and that access to the educational platform and to a teacher is provided throughout this period.
The period of validity starts the day the Student gets access to the course. It is the Student’s responsibility to complete the course in time. Failure to complete the course in time does not entitle the Student to any reimbursement from the School.
The validity of one course is not transferable to another course. The student is only entitled access to the course paid for.
5. Finishing an incomplete course
If the course is not completed within the period of validity, the Student may restart the studies within six months from the end of the period of validity, at a cost of 50 per cent of the course fee for a new period of validity.
