Frequent Questions

If you live in a country where our pricing doesn’t make sense, then we have created a reduced pricing policy to make it more affordable, bringing our pricing inline with the cost of living.  Please check the list of countries to find the appropriate level of reduction of our training price, for your country.  If you want to apply the reduction, please get in contact as this is not added automatically. 

Our payment gateway provider is Stripe and sometimes payments can be declined if the payment details are not correct. e.g the name and address do not match those with the card provider. In this case please check that you are entering the correct details, or use a different card.  This is a safety feature of Stripe to prevent fraudulent transactions. If this, however, is a genuine transaction we will help resolve this with Stripe. 

Payment alternatives. We also provide the option of payment via bank transfer if online payment through our website is problematic. 

In both instances, please contact us.

We have created a blended learning experience for our training meaning that you are not just doing via a zoom chat. We have tailored a training experience based on the class materials for you to maximize your learning. 

With our training, you learn via a mixed format of self-based learning, live training sessions, pre-recorded on-demand videos, and engaging with your peers in group sessions. Depending on the course you may be asked to provide course work or take a short test. 

You can change your course at any time, please contact us to provide you details. 

Our training is predominantly in English but can provide it in other languages upon request if there is a sufficient number of people to run the class. This would require delivering the training with a co-trainer who can also translate. 

Training classes with more than 5 persons can be tailored to meet your specific language requirements. Please get in contact to discuss.

Our private training can be delivered online & offline depending on the requirements. These do not require the same level of travel for those taking the training and are therefore safer to carry out. Please contact for more info.
