Courses booked inside 15 days of their commencement date must be paid for immediately at the time of booking.

On receiving the booking confirmation, you agree that the service provided by TASC is deemed to have commenced and that the transfer and cancellation table will apply.

Delegate Information

All mandatory fields should be completed during the booking process. Missing or incomplete information may result in your booking being rejected.

Cancellations

Written or email notifications for the cancellation of training course bookings within 0–15 days of the course date, or failure to attend a course without prior written notification, will be subject to the scale of charges shown in the Transfer and Cancellation table.

If payment has already been made only the remaining percentage of the course fee, after the transfer or cancellation charges have been applied, shall be refunded. Courses booked inside 15 days must be paid for immediately.

Cancellations of bespoke courses and exclusive courses within the 0-15 day period will be subject to the full course fee.

Cancellations Due to Sickness

Cancellations due to sickness will be accepted without charge on the basis that the delegates place will be rescheduled for a later date. Where a cancellation is made and is not rescheduled the course fee is payable except under exceptional circumstances.

Substitutions

Clients may substitute the original delegate with another person at no extra charge. Written notification is required to substitute a delegate.

Transfers

Written notification is required to transfer a booking to another course. Course bookings can be transferred without charge when notification is received 15 or more days prior to the start date of the originally booked course and if the transfer is for a like-for-like course.

Where notification is received within 10–15 days (inclusive) of the start date of the originally booked course, a once only transfer is allowed with a 25% charge applied based on the original fee. The transfer charge will be 50% where notification is received within 1–9 days (inclusive) of the course date. If that transfer is then cancelled or changed at any time, the full course fee remains payable. Transfers on the day shall only be permitted when supported by a doctor’s certificate. In all other circumstances 100% of the course fee will be payable. Only one transfer is permitted per booking. Subsequent transfers or cancellations shall be affected in line with the conditions outlined in the Transfer and Cancellation table.
