Cancellations and Refunds
Where course fees include a deposit, this deposit is non-refundable and covers the administrative costs of enrolling a participant into a program.
Should a participant notify LDTG of their withdrawal or intended withdrawal from a program once they have enrolled, refunds will apply as outlined below.
If the participant provides more than five (5) business days’ notice of their withdrawal from the course, any fees that have been paid in excess of the deposit will be refunded.
If the participant withdraws from the course between 5 and 2 business days (inclusive) before the course, they will be required to pay 75% of the full course fees (including the deposit). If the full course fees have already been paid, the participant will be refunded 25%.
Participants may notify LDTG of their withdrawal from a course by phone, email or in person.
Should a participant not attend their scheduled training course, they will forfeit all course fees already paid and be liable to pay any outstanding amount.
A participant may transfer their enrolment to a later course date at no additional cost should they not be able to attend the course in which they are enrolled. Approval for a transfer must be sought from LDTG management. Generally, approval will be granted for instances such as ill health, emergency and bereavement.
In the event of LDTG being unable to provide the course as advertised, full refunds will be paid to participants or a transfer to another course date will be offered.
Refunds will generally be paid in the same manner as the fees were paid (e.g. credit card, direct deposit, etc).

These are provided free of charge.
