We strongly advise you to carefully review these terms before enrolling in any of our courses.

Registration and Acceptance

Upon registering, you are submitting an offer to Pideya Learning Academy to attend the specified training course. All registrations are subject to the approval of Pideya Learning Academy, and acceptance will be communicated in writing, which may include email correspondence. The formation of a contractual agreement between you and Pideya Learning Academy will occur only when the confirmation is sent to you. This confirmation, regardless of whether it is received or not, will serve as the official confirmation, unless notified otherwise within 14 days of Pideya Learning Academy receiving your registration. Please be aware that Pideya Learning Academy reserves the right to decline any registration.

Registration Process

You agree to provide accurate and complete information during the registration process. Pideya Learning Academy reserves the right to reject or cancel any enrollment if the provided information is found to be false or misleading.

Payment Terms

Payment for the training course must be remitted in full to Pideya Learning Academy, following the payment terms currently in effect but, in any case, no later than two weeks before the scheduled Event. Failure to complete full payment prior to the course may result in Pideya Learning Academy, at its sole discretion and without assuming liability, either mandating payment as a prerequisite for entry or denying entry altogether. No refunds for any portion of previously paid Fees (if any) will be issued, and any outstanding balance of Fees will remain due and payable if entry is denied under this condition.

Discounts applicable to group registrations are valid only for the specified number of delegates. If the number of delegates attending the training course falls below the specified number due to cancellations before the Event or non-attendance, Pideya Learning Academy reserves the right to adjust Fees according to the actual number of attending delegates. Payment of such adjusted Fees must comply with the terms outlined above.

Prices for each training course are accurate at the time of publication. Pideya Learning Academy reserves the right to modify prices at its discretion; however, such changes will not affect confirmed registrations.

The parties intend that Pideya Learning Academy will receive the Fees net of all applicable taxes. The Client shall be solely responsible for paying all applicable taxes, including sales, VAT, service, or withholding taxes and bank charges. In the event of any taxes being levied on the Fees, the amount shall be increased to compensate for the taxes.

Cancellation and Refunds

Registrations canceled after confirmation by Pideya Learning Academy but more than 14 days before the course are subject to a 10% of the course fee as administration charge. Registrations canceled within 7 to 13 days before the course, a 50% refund will be issued, minus an administrative fee of 10% of the course fee. For cancellations made within 7 days of the course start date, no refund will be provided, and the full course fee will apply. Failure to attend a training course requires full payment, and no refunds will be granted. Pideya Learning Academy reserves the right to cancel a registration after confirmation, in which case all Fees paid will be refunded. The refund of registration Fees is the sole remedy in the event of registration cancellation by Pideya Learning Academy, with all other liabilities expressly excluded.

Substitutions and Transfers

Substitutions are welcome at any time, but delegate registrations are issued for personal use only. Registration transfer to third parties, sale, commercial exploitation, or any other form of transfer is strictly prohibited.

Registration for a training course may be transferred to an alternative course within 3 months of the original course date, subject to availability and payment of any additional Fees for the alternative course. No refunds are granted for transfers, and only one transfer between courses is allowed. Cancellations are not accepted after transferring to an alternative course, and full Fees remain payable.

Course Changes and Cancellations

Pideya Learning Academy reserves the right to change the format, participants, content, location, timing, or any other aspect of the training course without assuming liability.

Pideya Learning Academy may cancel or change the date of a course at any time for any reason, with or without reasonable cause. In the event of a date change, the registration will be valid for the new date if the attendee wishes to attend. If Pideya Learning Academy changes or cancels a course, a credit note or refund of the full registration Fees will be provided at the attendee’s discretion. The credit note or refund is the sole remedy in the event of course date changes or cancellations, with all other liabilities expressly excluded.
