Booking fee (refundable)
These training days are complimentary, but we ask for a £100 booking fee per day/per student to reserve a place.
It’s 100% refundable on completion.
We do this because experience shows that when training is “free”, people sometimes book and don’t turn up. That wastes time and resources – and can block a place for someone who genuinely wants to attend.
