Classroom course cancellation requests due to Corona Virus
- As of the 25th February 2022, we can no longer sustain free transfers in the case of a positive Covid result.
*We are sorry. We appreciate that sickness, family matters, work commitments and covid is nobody’s fault, however free transfers during the pandemic, led to significant and crippling financial losses. We had an extraordinarily high volume of cancelations leading to empty seats. The knock-on effect resulted in subsequent courses full of rescheduled delegates training for free, taking up new delegate availability in extra-large very costly venues which allows for social distancing if required. If you have difficulty paying for your rescheduled course, please let us know.
In all cases, cancellation or transfer can be noticed by telephone on 01954 212118 but must be confirmed either in writing or by email at info@thebridgefirstaid.co.uk within the next 24 (twenty-four) hours following the phone call.
In the case of services, refunds will be made within 14 days of cancellation, less the fee for any service consumed up to the point of cancellation.
If we cancel or change the location of a course
In exceptional circumstances, we may need to cancel a scheduled course. Reasons for this may include, but not be restricted to low registration numbers (open courses with fewer than 4 participants may be cancelled), sickness or issues with availability of a venue.
- If we cancel a course, we will endeavour to give you as much notice as possible.
- If we cancel a course, we will offer you a full refund or free transfer to an alternate date.
- In the event that the location of a course is changed significantly, we will offer a refund or transfer
Discounted Rates
Percentage discounts for blended courses
Where the client is eligible for a percentage discount, the reduction is only applied to the classroom element. The blended training RRP is £29.95 per learner and will be subtracted from the standard course fee, prior to discount.
Rescheduled learners absent from on-site group training
For clients who have booked on-site group training and wish to send an absent learner on a public scheduled course of the same level, places are subject to availability. Ideally on-site training absentees are rescheduled within 6 weeks of the original booking. Once the seat is confirmed, the client and absentee will be notified.
