We will give a 100% refund on cancellations received before the end of the first week of the course.
After the first week we can discuss a refund or transfer you to a later course under special circumstances, such as ill health. It is our policy to extend the greatest possible flexibility to students under these circumstances.

Don’t worry about technical skills – if you can handle email and find a web page, then you’re ready to go.
Yes, as many as you feel you can manage. However, if you haven’t studied before or for a long time, you may like to start with one course to get a feel for how much time is involved. And if you do feel you’ve signed on for too much we are happy to give a refund in the first week or to reschedule to a later term.
Apart from English and a desire to learn, there are no previous qualifications required.
