SECTION C: COURSE FEES AND PAYMENT TERMS

11. Course Fees:

Professional Courses: To secure your place on your Professional Course you must pay us a deposit. To take part in the Professional Course and access the learning platform, you must pay Professional Course subscription fees (see: FAQs page here) (the “Professional Course Fees”). You may pay your Professional Course Fees in the following ways (with these fee options notified to you by email and invoiced upon your selection of the payment option you wish to choose):

a) Deposit plus Instalments: You may pay a Professional Course Fee deposit (your “Deposit”), invoiced and payable upon confirmation of your application in accordance with Clause 7, with the remaining Professional Course Fees (after deduction of your Deposit) then payable in equal monthly instalments with the first instalment due and payable 14 days prior to the commencement of the Professional Course and subsequent payments due and payable on the fifth day of each month commencing the month following the start of the Professional Course and ending in the month in which the Professional Course finishes; OR

b) Deposit plus Up-Front: You must pay us a deposit, invoiced and payable upon confirmation of your application in accordance with Clause 7, and then the remaining Professional Course Fees in one lump sum up-front which shall be invoiced 30 days prior to the start date of the Professional Course and shall be due and payable 14 days before your first Professional Course session starts. This is a discounted option to the full fee payable under the Deposit plus Instalments option above. You also have the option to pay the Deposit and Professional Course Fees together in one lump sum on acceptance of your place on the Professional Course.

Foundation Courses: See here for all course fees. You must pay a deposit to secure your place on our Foundation Courses, this is payable on confirmation of your enrolment and will be deducted from remaining course fees. You may pay the remaining course fees upfront, or opt to pay in three interest free instalments (the “Foundation Course Fees”). If paying in instalments, you will make three monthly payments to Created, the first payable 5 days prior to the commencement of the course, from which your deposit amount will be deducted, followed by two equal payments payable on the fifth day the second and third months of the course.

Taster Courses: All Taster Courses are offered free of charge and require no payment of fees or any deposit.

Subject to your cancellation rights, Deposits and Professional Course Fees/Foundation Course Fees (as applicable – “Course Fees”) are non-refundable-see Clause 25 below, as if you do elect to withdraw from a Course we will incur costs in administering this withdrawal and may have lost the ability to find a replacement candidate to ‘step into your shoes’.

For more information on your Course cancellation rights see Clauses 24 and 25 below.

12. VAT and Expenses: The Deposit and the Course Fees are inclusive of VAT or other taxes (where applicable). The Deposit and Course Fees include access to our learning platform, but do not, however, cover expenses such as licences for software tools). You are responsible for any such expenses.

13. Payment: You shall pay the Course Fees (including any Deposit) via the payment methods detailed on your invoice. All payments by credit or debit card are subject to checks by us, your card issuer and any payment provider.

14. Third Party Payment Providers: We are not a payment provider or a ‘merchant’ for payment and may use third party payment providers such as Stripe to collect Course Fees including any Deposit. In such instances, we are not party to any agreement between you and the payment provider and are not liable for any claim or liability in relation to payment provision services. You may be bound by the payment provider’s terms which may be different to these Course Terms. Payment providers may decide whether you are suitable to use their services and we are not liable for such decisions. Similarly if you choose to enter into any financing arrangement with a third party relating to the payment of some or all of your course fees we are not party to any agreement between you and the funding provider and are not liable for any claim or liability in relation to the provision of such funding.

15. Right to Suspend Access to the Course: If any payment due to us remains unpaid for more than 7 days after it becomes due and payable, Created reserves the right to suspend your access to the Course until payment is received. This includes, for example, if a recurring instalment payment of the Course Fees is refused by your bank or credit card provider.

Purchases made from REED.co.uk

Under this policy, you may cancel your purchase of the course within the period of 14 calendar days from the date on which the contract of purchase is concluded. This is called a “Cancellation Period”. Note that if you redeem your voucher during the Cancellation Period, you expressly request us to begin providing the course materials and you acknowledge that you lose your right to cancel the purchase of the course and get any refund for it.
In case you decide to cancel your purchase of a course, it can be done in the following way:

By filling out Cancellation Form and sending it via C/O Hansel Henson Ltd, 3rd Floor, 8 Bloomsbury Street, London, WC1B 3SR. If you cancel the purchase of a course within 14 calendar days as mentioned above, we will refund you for all payments made as a part of your purchase within 14 calendar days from the day we accept that you are entitled to a refund.

26. Suspension of Your Participation in the Course: Created may, at its sole discretion, without liability, suspend your participation in the Course if: (a) under Clause 15 you have failed to pay any Course Fees (including any Deposit) due and payable; (b) in Created’s reasonable opinion, you have breached (or Created suspects you may have breached) the provisions of these Course Terms, including if you have allowed another person to participate in the Course using your access details.

27. Terminating Your Participation in the Course: Created may terminate your participation in the Course without liability:

a) upon providing 1 week’s written notice, at Created’s absolute discretion.
b) immediately upon providing written notice if, in Created’s reasonable opinion, you have breached (or Created suspects you may have breached) the provisions of these Course Terms;

In the circumstances listed in Clause 27(a) above, Created shall refund you, on a pro-rata basis, a proportion of the Course Fees equal to the number of months remaining of the Term as at the date of such termination if you have paid for the Course in full and, where you have chosen to pay in instalments, no further instalments will be due except to the extent required to cover the period until termination.

In the circumstances listed in Clause 27(b) above, Created will not refund you any Course Fees already paid to it (including any Deposit), and any unused portion of your Course Fees for the Term will be forfeited. If on a monthly instalment payment plan, you will still be liable for any remaining instalments for the Course Term.

Created may at its sole option decide to cancel a Course prior to commencement, in which case all Course Fees (and any Deposit) paid in advance will be refunded and, if you have chosen to pay in instalments, no further instalments will be due.

28. Effect of Cancellation/Termination: The termination of your right to participate in your Course, for whatever reason, shall:

a) Immediately end all licences granted under these Course Terms to use Course Materials and your rights to participate in your Course;
b) not affect any of your rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities that have accrued during the Term, including the right to claim damages in respect of any breach of these Course Terms; and
c) not affect the coming into force or the continuance in force of any provision hereof which is expressly or by implication intended to come into or continue in force on or after such expiry or termination.
