We will confirm course bookings either by e mail or post, within 7 days of you booking a course via verbal, e-mail or written communication. At this point a 50% deposit will become payable, or full payment (100%) if this falls within 7 days of course start date. Where a booking confirmation has been sent to a customer the course is considered confirmed unless agreed in writing by CoLa Training Services Ltd at any time.
-
Prices are fixed at time of confirmation and are subject to VAT at the prevailing rate at the time of invoice.

A course may be subject to minimum and / or maximum trainee numbers. When this is the case minimum course cost will be trainee rate multiplied by minimum trainee number, even if this is not achieved.

Cancellation 28 – 14 days prior to course date – 50% course cost. Deposit non refundable. Cancellation less than 14 days prior to course date – 100% cost. Postponement of courses to alternative date(s) – 50% of course cost. PLEASE NOTE: Cancellation of any booking must be made in writing, either by e mail or post.
