- Acceptance onto all of my courses is entirely at my discretion; Levels 4 and 5 are by invitation only.
- All levels are available via correspondence only.
- The student agrees to read the initial correspondence sent to him on registration in its entirety.
- The student agrees to the Terms and Conditions and understands it is his responsibility to familiarise himself with them; this includes points 1 to 9 under Accessing the Student Zone.
- After commencement of the relevant course I reserve my right to terminate the student's tuition for any of the following reasons: tutorials are regularly submitted after the deadlines; the student regularly fails to submit tutorials; the student regularly submits work that is below standard; tuition fees are regularly paid late; the behaviour/attitude of the student is not conducive to continuing our relationship.
- Should I terminate the studies for any of the above-mentioned reasons, this will be affected immediately.
- No refunds will apply under any circumstances and no notice period is required from me.
- The certification attained on completion of studies is awarded entirely at my discretion: it is possible to fail if the standard of work is regularly below what is expected or if insufficient work has been submitted during the course.
- For levels where a final delineation is required (and which is invoiced separately for some levels), failure to attain accuracy may result in failure of the course in its entirety.
- Only payment of the 1st instalment for that module/level secures acceptance.
- Should a student pay by credit card a 5% surcharge is levied.
- All course fees are payable as per their stipulated deadlines: this information is clearly depicted on my web site and is sent to students on registration of the course.
- No tutorials are assessed if fees are in arrears.
- One month’s calendar notice is required if the student wishes to terminate his studies; any fees paid in advance will not be refunded.
- Students may not record extra lessons or tutorial workshops; students may request an audio file from me for which a fee is applicable.
- Audio files, hand outs and any notes I provide may not, under any circumstances, be shared with a 3rd party; this is my intellectual property.
- Compulsory text books are purchased by the student and do not form part of the course material provided.
- Computer software is purchased by the student and does not form part of the course material provided.
- Any tutorial workshops conducted do not form part of the course fees or syllabus structure and are invoiced separately, payable in advance.
- Students agree that accessing the Student Zone is compulsory and forms part of these Terms and Conditions; this section facilitates communication and audio file uploads.
- I reserve my right, without prejudice, to amend these Terms and Conditions as and when I deem necessary.
- Some tutorials do not warrant an audio file, in which case the student will be sent my assessment via mail.
- Students may receive an audio file and a mail from me should I need to include additional documents which I do not choose to upload to the Student Zone; this will be stipulated either on the calendar or via mail.
- My turn-around time to assess and respond to submitted tutorials is maximum 2 week days for horary (Level 1) and for the levels thereafter, 5 week days.
- I reserve my right to amend these deadlines as and when necessary.
- The Apprentice Module has its own deadlines applicable to my replies: see the Apprentice Module section.
