Guidelines for Students and Employers
It is the employer’s responsibility to ensure that students are free from any condition which would affect their capability to undertake their chosen course, and that they have the aptitude to cope with an intensive course of study. We welcome students with disabilities but it remains their employer’s responsibility to ensure that they are appropriately supported in their workplace. We would welcome in advance, for setup purposes, notification of any assistance that a student is likely to need during the running of a course.
If it is felt that the student doesn’t meet the learning outcomes of the course and or assessment process and is referred, the employer (where relevant) will be advised. Any further training or coaching over and above that provided on the course will be charged for.
Smoking
Our premises are all non-smoking areas and all delegates are required to adhere to this policy.
Exclusion
We reserve the right to refuse access to our facilities and premises where there is reason to believe that a delegate is in breach of these conditions or where a delegate uses threatening, bullying, harassing or disruptive behaviour. We will not be liable for any losses or expense (including course fees and consequential damages) incurred by a delegate arising from such an exclusion.
General
The Company will not be liable for any failure or delay in the performance, in whole or part, of any of its obligations in connection with the provision of the Course arising from or attributable to acts, events, omissions or accidents beyond its reasonable control.
These Booking Terms and Conditions will be governed by and construed in accordance with English Law. The English Courts will have exclusive jurisdiction to deal with any dispute which has arisen or may arise out of or in connection with them.
Limitations of Liability
The liability of the Company to the Participant with respect to the provision of the Course, the cancellation, postponement, or amendment or the Course, any negligence, any breach of the Contract, or arising in any other way out of the subject-matter of these Booking Terms and Conditions, will not extend to:
Any indirect losses or damages, or to any loss of profits, loss of contracts or opportunity, whether direct or indirect, even if the Company had been advised of the possibility of those losses or if they were within the Company’s contemplation; or
Any costs or expenses incurred by any person or organisation in connection with travel, accommodation, reservations or other arrangements.
In any event, the liability of the Company to the Participant with respect to the provision of the Course, the cancellation, postponement, or amendment or the course, any negligence, any breach of the Contract, or arising in any other way out of the subject-matter of these Booking Terms and Conditions is limited to the amount of Course Fees received from or on behalf of the Participant in respect of the Course.

Views expressed by course tutors are their own and not necessarily that of the company. The Company does not accept any liability for advice given or views expressed by course tutors or in any notes or documentation provided to Participants.
