A class may not run unless there is a minimum number of students. Course fees Please note that fee advice should only be taken from the Finance or Student Administration offices. All fees are payable at the time of enrolment unless they total more than 350, when you can pay in 4 equal instalments by Direct Debit only. Special arrangements may be possible on request from Finance office. For students studying LR programmes, if your employer/sponsor has agreed to pay your fees, please provide evidence of their intent at enrolment. Please be aware that you will be liable for payment of the course fees if your employer/sponsor subsequently fails to provide payment upon receipt of invoice. For students studying ER programmes your employer will be responsible for paying your course fees as per the training quotation signed by them. Payment by instalments A completed and signed Direct Debit form must be presented with your first instalment. Failure to complete the form will result in us being unable to complete your enrolment. You will make the first payment at enrolment followed by three consecutive monthly payments. The exception of this is where a programme lasts for less than 16 weeks, where a different instalment plan can be arranged. Please note: should you choose to withdraw from the course, you will still be expected to pay any outstanding instalments. Refunds A refund of any course fees already paid is only available in the following circumstances: If the college closes a class due to insufficient enrolments and is unable to offer a suitable alternative. If you withdraw from a course due to ill health and a doctor has certified you too unwell to continue studies. In this situation the refund will take into account the amount of the course already completed before the withdrawal. Discretionary Bursary Fund (BSF) The Discretionary Bursary Fund (BSF) is available to assist students with a wide range of study costs, including equipment, books, fees, transport and other expenses associated with learning. There is also a specific fund to assist with childcare. Examinations Students are responsible for ensuring an examination entry form is submitted before our advertised closing date. In some instances late entries cannot be accepted. Students who withdraw from the course or who are absent from or who do not fulfil the course work or other requirements for any examinations for which they were granted a free entry will be required to reimburse the full fees. The only exception to this is if the circumstances arise from medical reasons and a doctor certifies this. Students who pay for their examination and subsequently withdraw or do not attend for 6 weeks prior to the examination will not be allowed into the examination unless the absence from the course is certified by a doctor. 62 Data Protection Statement The personal information you provide is passed to the Chief Executive of Skills Funding ( the Agency ) and, when needed, the Department for Education, including the Education Funding Agency to meet legal responsibilities under the Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Act 2009, and for the Agency s Learning Records Service (LRS) to create and maintain a unique learner number (ULN) and a Personal Learning Record (PLR).

63 Disclaimer The details in this guide are correct at the time of going to press (June 2014). However the college reserves the right to change the details outlined in this guide, including fees if needed, or withdraw courses in the case of unforeseen circumstances. Where numbers enrolling on any specific programme are too few to make the course viable, the college reserves the right to cancel this programme and refund those who have paid fees. The college will attempt to suggest other suitable courses where appropriate although these might not be based at CRC. If class closures occur, we inform students as early as possible, although in rare cases this might be after the course starts.
