Cancellations
Should you choose to pay in instalments these will be taken as per the schedule agreed upon enrolment, (confirmed in your Direct Debit Agreement) and will conclude once your account has been paid in full.
Your statutory right under the consumer protection (Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013), allows you 14 days from your enrolment, however upon using your login and receiving access to your course materials all cancellation rights are waivered upon login. All cancellation is to be made in writing only and will not be accepted via phone. In the interest of clarity and for the avoidance of doubt, you should note that emails or telephone cancellations are not accepted. You must send the signed, written request of cancellation by recorded delivery.
Refunds are not available for international students (living outside of the UK and Ireland).
If you chose to pay by instalments, then regardless of whether you complete your course or decide after your cancellation period has expired that it’s not for you, your payments agreed with your payment plan are still due to the college.
We will offer a refund on paper-based courses as long as the materials are returned back to us within the 14-day period where applicable. (Please note it is your responsibility to ensure the pack is sent by the appropriate services in order to ensure a safe delivery) The materials should not be used, marked or damaged in anyway upon being returned to The Learning College. We will send you a refund less including standard postage and packing. Any additional postage charges paid by yourself will not be reimbursed.

To cancel your course, you must complete and send a cancelation form, signed, via recorded delivery to the Cancellation and Conversions Department at our registered address in Staffordshire (cancellations by telephone will not be accepted). All cancellations are subject to an administration charge.

After the 14 days have elapsed, we will not accept a refund request and any returned materials will be refused delivery. You remain liable for all fees plus any additional charges incurred for administration, failed direct debit payments/auto payments or credit control, including legal fees if appropriate.
Valid refunds will be processed within 30 days upon receipt of returned unmarked and undamaged items in un-opened and re-saleable condition and payment made via cheque.
