We provide all students with a
"Certificate of Achievement". Courses contain assignments and for those
students who have their course work assessed, a statement that a student
has completed assignments and reached a satisfactory standard can also be
added. Please visit our frequent questions page
for more information about us.
These programs may be taken in-house in Adelaide or via distance
learning (CD-ROM - $A280.00) or by
broadband learning
($A250.00).
Each in-house course takes a full day and costs $A750.00; lunch, a
CD-ROM with PDF of a workbook and sample files is provided as part of the
course.
The cost
of the course for in-house training is $A750.00 per person and includes GST.
We encourage payment prior to taking the course by
direct deposit to our bankers or via
PayPal. We
encourage payment via
PayPal, an organization which takes all credit cards
using a secure Internet facility. PayPal is a partner
within the eBay system. We have chosen PayPal because it
is independent of us, allows us to hold money in trust
until we have delivered the course and is now
operational in Australia.
We will provide a tax invoice on
receipt of payment. If you cannot attend after booking a
course, there is no penalty, we will simply re-schedule.
If this is not possible, we will refund payment.
This course can be taken by distance learning at a
considerable discount - $A280.00.
We ship a printed workbook and CD-ROM
containing a large collection of these instructional
movies. Together they enable you to learn to use the
software. We provide email support while you
work though the course.
Here is a link to
background material on the way our distance courses
work.
If your company or
organization is paying for the course, all we need is a
purchase order and an address to send the course
materials. We encourage payment via
PayPal, an
organization which takes all credit cards using a secure
Internet facility. PayPal is a partner within the eBay
system. We have chosen PayPal because it is independent
of us, allows us to hold money in trust until we have
delivered the course and is now operational in
Australia.
If you take the course as a private distance
student, payment for courses can also be
accepted through the the
PayPal system.
