     (I) Tickets are valid for 12 months from date of purchase
     (iI) In extenuating circumstances, supporting documents are required from authorised and valid parties.
     (Iii) Only one reschedule may be granted per ticket

9.4.2 Date Change

Four weeks or more prior to an event a member can request an event date change:

     (I) Subject to approval
     (Ii) Ticket can be changed once upon approval (further changes will incur a fee)

     (Ii) A $195 fee for change of date within the four-week period is required.
     (iiI) Ticket transferred to another student. A transfer fee of $295 applies.

9.5. No Penalty

Upon acceptance of the Member’s enrolment, the Consultant allocates resources to the Program and commits a significant amount of time to the provision of the Program.
Given the before and the fact that enrolment places are limited, the Member acknowledges that any non-refunded amount and/or cancellation fee is a genuine pre-estimate of the loss the Consultant is likely to suffer as a result of the Member’s early cancellation. The Member acknowledges that this is not a penalty.
