Booking a Course

The normal and easiest method of booking place(s) on a specific course(s) on specific date(s) is to use the “Book Now” button located on the right hand side column where the calendar of available dates can also be found.

Selecting and booking a course in this way will secure your place(s) and facilitate payment and the provision of an invoice.

If preferred, bookings can also be made by pressing the ‘request a date’ button and completing the form or via the telephone, leaving brief details on a dedicated extension in order that we can get back to you to discuss specific requirements and confirm. In addition to these methods, an email or official purchase order can be used.

For your convenience, course details can be printed off by pressing the ‘Course details’ button. Any special dietary requirements, accessibility requirements, etc., can be detailed on the booking/payment form when completed.

Payment

To guarantee reserved place(s) being allocated, payment must be made at the time of booking. VAT is applicable on all services and courses at the standard rate at the time of booking.
