Terms and Conditions including Privacy Policy

To Make a Booking

Course bookings are made online. Please select the course you wish to take. Read the course description carefully to make sure that it is right for you and that, if necessary, you have studied any other courses that need to come first. These will be clearly shown if applicable and you will confirm your eligibility during the checkout process.

Payment

Payment is made online at the time of the booking. Payment can be made by BACS, our bank details will be shown on the invoice, or by PayPal which allows you to pay by debit or credit card. PayPal do not require you to have an account to be able to use their service. We do not retain any of your financial information as the entire transaction is handled by PayPal.

Cancellation Policy

Please note that it is not possible to provide a refund for a Distance Learning course once we have made the documentation available to you.

With other courses, sometimes it can be necessary for you to cancel or change a course that you have booked, and we wish to be fair with you, and also with ourselves, when this happens. Places are in demand and late cancellations are not normally acceptable. The following terms will apply.

In all cases, as an alternative to a refund, we will be happy to book you on to the next suitable course where places are available. There is no charge for this.

If moving to another course is not an option for you, then you may apply for a partial refund as follows:

Where you are able to give us in excess of 60 days notice of cancellation we will refund the course fee in full less a 20% administrative fee. Where you are able to give us 60 days notice or less, but more than 10 days notice, we will refund the due fee in full less a 50% administrative fee. Where you are able to give us 10 days notice or less, we will be unable to provide a refund.

If you need to advise us of a cancellation, please do so by email or telephone. The cancellation is deemed as accepted once we respond to your communication in writing.

It is possible that we may need to cancel a course, and The Soul Midwives School reserves the right to to do this if circumstances force us to do so. We will give you as much notice as possible, and in the event of a cancelled course, full fees including deposits will be refunded. However, The Soul Midwives School accept no further liability for course cancellations beyond the course fee refund. If you are booking travel and accommodation, we strongly recommend that you consider travel insurance.
