Distance Learning Switch Guarantee:
We want you to feel 100% comfortable when enrolling into one of our courses, thus we have updated our terms and conditions in response to the COVID-19 crisis. Payments are non-refundable, however, if you are unable to attend your course, whether it be due to travel restrictions or school closures, you will have the option to postpone with zero change fees to any course date within the next 12 months.
Alternatively, you can postpone your course start date to any time that feels more comfortable to you at no extra charge. You are also free to change from a face-to-face course to our new Online Blended TESOL.

Payment Conditions:

• Payments are non-refundable.
• For face-to-face courses, the balance of course fees must be paid no later than 15 working days before the first day of the course. Should the balance not reach us on time you will automatically be placed on a reserve list and risk losing your place if someone pays in full before you do. There will be no right to a refund of your deposit.
