CPD Short Course Terms and Conditions of Booking

The booking form constitutes a binding contract between the parties. ABC reserves the right not to confirm bookings where an official booking form has not been submitted.

3. Payment and Payment Period

3.1  Course fees are payable within 28 days of date of invoice. Invoices shall be sent to a delegate immediately after their attendance on the course. In some cases ABC may require payment in advance and where this is the case a delegate shall be advised of this at the time of booking.
      
3.2  In the event that payment is not made within the 28 day period, ABC reserves the right to add interest at a rate of 2% of the invoice sum.

ABC shall make its best efforts to inform delegates as soon as possible in this event.
