TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. INDIVIDUAL THERAPY/COACHING NEEDS
Courses are primarily for training. Therefore participants are strongly encouraged to attend to any coaching and/or therapy requirements they may identify, outside of the course. Amanda Hopper Hypnotherapy may offer discounted rates for personal therapy/coaching to course participants and graduates, subject to availability. If not, Broomhouse Academy will recommend suitably qualified and experienced practitioners.
2. ACCEPTANCE ON FREE FOUNDATION WEEKEND AND STUDENT ASSESMENT PROCESS
Acceptance on our free foundation weekend is for our foundation weekend ONLY and does not imply that you will automatically be accepted to take the whole practitioner level course.
Students will be continuously monitored and assessed during the course. Students are encouraged to keep a journal documenting their own research and personal development. Students are required to undertake personal study between modules and to provide evidence of such. Hypnotherapy involves both science and art; therefore, you are encouraged to develop your own unique style whilst adhering to core methods, principles and ethics. The expectation is that if students who successfully complete all required elements of a program will pass the course evaluation. Broomhouse Academy (and any course assistants/tutors) are there to support you through the course and monitor your improvement. Students will be provided with appropriate feedback that highlights areas for potential improvement in order to ensure your success.
3. TUTORS
It is company policy to do our best to ensure that the tutors attending the first weekend will remain with that particular group for the duration of the course. However, due to unforeseen circumstances it may be necessary to deploy different tutors in order to maintain course continuity. This will not affect the course content or the quality of training.
4. ATTENDANCE
You are expected to attend all weekend modules. In the event that a student is not able to attend a particular module or session, they will be given the opportunity to catch up by seeing one of our tutors privately. There will however be an ADDITIONAL cost of £75.00 for this service. Students are only permitted one – private session catchup due to GHsC accreditation hours.
Students who habitually arrive late, or leave early, may have this time deducted from their attendance record and therefore may not satisfy the criteria to pass the course and obtain a certificate when the course ends. The course itself may be concluded earlier than anticipated depending on class numbers and delivery methods.
5. COURSE FEES
We choose to break the total cost of the course down into nine equal monthly payments to help students financially.
Students are expected to pay agreed monthly fees on or before the Saturday of each training weekend. Failure to do so may result in a delay to your graduation or temporary suspension from the class. Students who are not able to attend a particular weekend but require a catchup are still required to pay their monthly fee on or before the Saturday of their scheduled weekend. Acceptable payment methods are BACS or cash. If a student leaves the course or is expelled from the course, no further payments will be required provided all previous modules attended are paid in full.
6. BEHAVIOUR & CONDUCT
Broomhouse Academy reserves the right to exclude any participant from the training program if their behaviour or conduct is regarded as unacceptable and/or negatively impacts on the learning experience of other students. We reserve the right to refuse entry onto the course. We may dismiss anyone from the course at any time for reasons including, but not limited to, being under the influence of alcohol or drugs (illegal or non-prescribed), inappropriate behaviour, repeated non-participation of home study or classroom activities, or non payment of fees. There will be no refund for any modules attended and no exceptions. We have a zero tolerance policy regarding harassment, bullying, discrimination, stalking and general misbehaviour.

7. COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE
If you have a complaint we would suggest that initially it is brought to the course tutors, then if this does not resolve the issue students can submit a formal complaint to the Principal or Independent Assor. If the complaint is still not resolved, then a complaint may be made via the formal procedure as laid out by our accrediting body.
8. EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY
Broomhouse Academy of Change is committed to promoting equality of opportunity and has due regard for those groups of people with identifiable characteristics that might lead to visible and invisible barriers. These barriers may include age, colour, creed, culture, disability, education, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, social class and status.
9. ANTI-DISCRIMINATORY PRACTICE
All students must consider and address their own prejudices and stereotyping behaviour, thereby ensuring that an anti-discriminatory approach is an integral part of their learning process. Any student who displays any form of prejudice or discrimination, in or outside of the training settings, will be immediately suspended until a full investigation is carried out.
I AGREE TO ABIDE BY THE ABOVE TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
