Participant Illness, Absence or Lateness
Bookings for workshops are non-refundable and non-transferable. If the client/participant is unable to attend the workshop event at the time and date booked for any reason including sickness, force majeure, or IT issues including internet connection, the client/participant will not be eligible for a refund. Event costs are covered by the sale of tickets, therefore a ticket bought is only for the event on that specific date. If the client/participant is unable to attend a course and notifies Signing Together more than 14 days in advance the client/participant can transfer the booking to another individual providing they meet the eligibility criteria. It is the client’s/participant’s responsibility to let Signing Together know the contact details including name, email address and shipping address for the new participant and to pass on any course information, including the participant manual if already posted to the original participant.
If the client/participant cannot attend & does not give at least 14 days’ notice to Signing Together, the client/participant will be offered a place on another workshop of the same level. The client/participant will be charged for the cost of a place minus the cost of the participant manual + any postage costs. The client/participant will be required to make the payment directly to Signing Together to secure the place and failure to pay promptly will result in the place being put back for sale. Allocation to another equivalent workshop is only offered once, if the client/participant cannot attend the alternative date agreed upon then no other alternative date will be offered nor a refund for the place.
If the client/participant re-books with another tutor the client/participant will be subject to their terms and conditions and may pay full price for the course unless an alternative is agreed with the other tutor. Signing Together does not send manuals and/or certificates to other tutors if the client/participant participates in the other tutors’ course. Signing Together is unable to communicate with the other tutor on your behalf.
Late arrival onto a workshop will be subject to the same conditions as total absence.
Issues with internet connection or joining the Zoom meeting, which may result in the participant not being able to access the training or lateness joining the training is the responsibility of the participant, and if this occurs Signing Together shall not be responsible.
Lost or Damaged Participant Manual
Participant manuals are posted ahead of the workshop to the shipping address provided on the booking form. The shipping address provided must be for the person attending the course, the client is responsible for providing the correct details so that the participant receives the Participant Manual ahead of the workshop. Participation of the workshop is not possible without the Participant Manual.
Failure to provide the correct shipping address information may result in the participant not being able to access the training and if this occurs Signing Together shall not be responsible.
In the event that a participant loses or damages their participant manual after receiving it and prior to the workshop date, a replacement participant manual will need to be requested via email by the participant. The replacement manual and additional postage charges will be subject to an additional cost, payment of the replacement participant manual will need to be made a minimum of 5 days before the scheduled workshop date.
