Cost of running the course
Every Skill Development Course needs to be registered at HQ. There is a course registration fee which is payable by the student. The fee covers the administration of the course at HQ, the supply of course Student Notes, and issuing student Qualifications. The amount of registration fee will be dependent on the course that is being run and will be shown on the course Syllabus. This fee is payable at the time of registration of the course with HQ.
Remember to check with HQ that the fee shown is up to date !!
