If the cancellation of the Event is made less than ten (10) working days before the Event commencement date then a cancellation fee equal to the full Event price will be due.

If the Event can be transferred to another date that is agreed by Newtyne and the Customer, no cancellation fee is payable provided the rescheduled Event takes place.

Should a resit be required this will be managed by the learner and at their expense.
