COVID-19 cancellations
Should your training be cancelled due to COVID-19, Brook’s standard cancellation policy and charges shall not apply. Instead, Brook will work with you to arrange alternative provision, which may include rescheduling the session and/or providing a digital session.
If a training course you have booked is held over more than one day or over several weeks, the course date used for cancellation purposes will always be the first date in the series. If you have started the training and are unable to attend one of the days or part of the training unfortunately no refund or transferring can occur.
If you are unable to attend the training course which you have booked onto and paid for you have three options. Your decision needs to be sent to us in writing prior to the event.
Someone else from your organisation can attend in your place, however notification of this needs to be sent to Brook beforehand.
This can be done four weeks or more before the date of the original course. You are unable to transfer to another course less than four weeks beforehand. The course which you transfer to has to be within the next 12 months, and you are only able to transfer your booking once. If there is no attendance at a transferred booking, then no refund will be granted.
