Customer policies

It is the Forton Group's policy to be flexible and supportive of training course participants and coaching clients where possible; however, we do incur costs when booking venues, committing trainers and organising events. It is the Forton Group's policy to set out clearly our policy on course reservations and cancellation costs and not hide in the 'small print'. This policy also covers the Data Protection statement relevant to course bookings, coaching and coach supervision.

Payments

Reservation is a contract and all payments must normally be made four weeks before the course date and/or first coaching session. Payments are accepted by cheque, BACs payment, or Worldpay or PayPal for payment by credit card. A VAT invoice will be issued on receipt of booking, on request ( admin@thefortongroup.com ). If payment is not received by the event date/first coaching session we reserve the right to make an additional charge of £20 per person to cover administration costs and/or cancel the place from course.

Where you are buying our services for yourself rather than for a business you have the right to cancel within seven days of our contract with you. In this case, if you do cancel your order within seven days in writing to admin@thefortongroup.com , you will have your payment returned in full. .

Course Substitutions, cancellations postponement fees and refunds

Cancellation by delegates

Places on our courses are limited so we therefore operate a cancellation policy regarding refund.

To cancel a place on our events and courses, notice of cancellation must be given by email to: info@thefortongroup.com Please note that receipt of notification of cancellation will be confirmed – if you do not receive confirmation of cancellation please try to contact us again.

To receive a full refund (minus a £25.00 administration fee) you must cancel at least 28 days prior to the start of the course. To receive a 50% refund (minus a £25.00 administration fee) or where possible a transfer to another event or course you must notify the Events Team at least 14 days prior to the training.

Delegates cancelling less than 14 days before the event will not be entitled to a refund. No refund will be made for non-attendance on the course

Name substitutions can be made at any time before the course without penalty.

For courses which are free of charge, we may ask for a deposit which will be returned upon arrival at the course. Should the applicant not attend the course without following the normal cancellation procedure, we will reserve the right to retain the applicant’s deposit.

Cancellation of courses by the Company and changes to course content

Our events and courses are constantly updated and while we will endeavour to deliver the courses as advertised there may inevitably be occasions where we have to change content without prior notice or, in exceptional circumstances, to cancel an event.

In the event of cancellation of a training event by us, we will endeavour to inform all participants four weeks before the course is due to take place, although please be aware that this is not always possible. Delegates will be offered an alternative date, a credit note or a full refund. We are unable to reimburse any other costs that may have been incurred, including flights, accommodation etc.

Occasionally, circumstances will arise which result in the need to cancel, reschedule or postpone an event, due to an unforeseen occurrence or Act of God. When this is the case we shall assume no liability.

Where dates are varied by us, course participants may request a full refund if the new dates are not convenient.

Coaching and Coach Mentoring or Supervision cancellations and postponements

We request that you, as a leader, commit to your coaching, supervision and/or coach mentoring appointments – whether in-person or telephone meetings, as you would to any significant executive commitment.

Subject to availability, your Coach/Supervisor/Mentor may agree to reschedule a meeting with a minimum of 7 days notice for face to face calls or 48 hours for telephone coaching. However, this is not guaranteed and you should check with them at the outset to confirm these arrangements. If less, or no, notice is given then the time is usually lost and you will be charged for replacement appointments
