5 Our rights to make changes

5.1 Minor changes to the training courses: We may change the training courses:

5.1.1 to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements; and

7 Providing the training course

7.1 Suitability for the training course: Please note it is your responsibility to ensure that you or any individuals you book on the training course are free from any condition which would affect your or their capability to undertake the chosen training course, and that you or they have the aptitude to cope with an intensive course of study. We welcome students with disabilities but it remains their employer’s responsibility to ensure that they are appropriately supported in their workplace. The XL Team would welcome in advance, for setup purposes, notification of any assistance that a student is likely to need during the running of the course.

Delegates need a basic command of English (defined as Level 2). So whilst we are often able to provide support to people who for example do not have English as a first language, our ability to do so is limited by the time available and the number of people who require assistance, although we may be able to make special arrangements if requested in advance. Please contact us if you need any guidance.

7.2 Training course information: During the booking process we will let you know when and where the training course will be taking place. We will provide joining instructions at least 4 weeks prior to the training course.

7.3 We are not responsible for delays outside our control: If the training course is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay we will use reasonable endeavours to book you onto an equivalent training course.

7.4 What will happen if you do not give required information to us: We will need certain information from you so that we can supply the training course to you, for example, delegate name. If so, this will have been stated in the description of the training course on our website. We will contact you to ask for this information. Additionally, you must provide the following information: details of any assistance that you or an individual you have booked onto a training course is likely to need during the running of a course.

If you do not give us this information within a reasonable time of us asking for it, or if you give us incomplete or incorrect information, we may either end the contract (and clause 11 will apply) or make an additional charge of a reasonable sum to compensate us for any extra work that is required as a result. We will not be responsible for complications on the day of the training course if this is caused by you not giving us the information we need within a reasonable time of us asking for it.

7.5 Resupplying a training course: If we decide in our sole discretion that a participant has not achieved the learning outcomes of the training course and/or the assessment standard, then we shall inform the participant and we reserve the right to charge for any further training or coaching over and above that provided on the training course.

8 Removal from the training course

8.1 We reserve the right to refuse to allow you, or any person booked by you, to participate, or continue to participate, in the training course if you:

9.4 How long do consumers have to change their minds? If you are a consumer you have 14 days after the day we email you to confirm your booking, this is your cooling-off period. However, if the training course takes place during the cooling-off period and you take part in the training course you cannot change your mind, even if the cooling-off period is still running.

9.5 If you need to end the contract for reasons that prevent your participation: If you are prevented from participating, for example due to injury or ill health, then you can:

9.5.1 defer your booking to another training course in the same calendar year. If the alternative training course is a higher price than the course you booked onto, you will be required to pay the difference but no transfer fee will be payable; or
9.5.2 transfer your booking to another individual in accordance with clause 6.

You must provide a note from a doctor in order to exercise the options in clause 9.5.1 to clause 9.5.2 above.
