If the Workshop or Course has already been paid for, we will refund you the full amount as soon as practicable.

  2. Delivery
    • We provide both face to face and online Workshops, Courses and oother events and resources. Where they are delivered online, login details for access to them will be provided in accordance with the Confirmation Email. Occasionally our delivery may be affected by an event outside our control. See clause 12 for details of our responsibilities when this happens.
    • Delivery of an Order shall be completed when we provide you with login details to the email address you gave us.
  3. Price of Courses and other fees
    • The prices of our Memberships, Workshops, Courses, other events and resources will be as quoted on our Site at the time you submit your order. We take all reasonable care to make sure that the prices are correctly presented at the time when they are entered onto the system. However, please see clause 9.5 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of what you ordered.
    • Our Prices may vary from time to time, but changes will not affect any order you have placed prior to the change(s).
    • Where applicable, our prices will include VAT. Where it does apply, this will be stated and will be at the applicable current rate chargeable in the UK for the time being. However, if the rate of VAT varies between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid in full before the change in VAT takes effect.
    • There are no delivery charges for our services or other products delivered online except that we may charge processing fees for certain payment methods which will be advised to you before you place an order. Where goods are ordered for physical delivery, prior to accepting your order and taking payment, all reasonable care will be taken to quote you accurate carriage charges applicable to your order.
    • Our Site contains a large number of Workshops, Courses and other services and products. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the prices on our site may not be correct. If we find an error in the price of what you have ordered we will contact you to advise you of this error and provide you with the option of continuing to purchase at the correct price or cancelling your order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing. Please note that if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the service or product to you at the incorrect (lower) price.
  4. How to pay
    • You can only pay us using a debit card, credit card or Paypal. We accept the following cards: Mastercard, Visa, Visa Electron, American Express.

      • Death or personal injury caused by our negligence;
      • Fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

      • Loss or corruption of data, information or software;
      • Loss of business opportunity;

In particular, we will not be responsible for ensuring that what you have purchased is suitable for your purposes or the purposes of any person within your organisation or who you may introduce and act on behalf of who is intending to become a Member, access a Workshop, Course or other service or product. All information (for example, learning content and guidance given in Workshops or other events and media), is provided by IAE in good faith but the decision and responsibility to implement it (in your own business or other context) is entirely yours. For the avoidance of doubt, the IAE Workshops, courses and similar activities are forms of business education and training and do not and should not be treated as advice specific to your business. You are solely responsible for deciding whether or not and how to apply and implement any information we or related third parties may provide. IAE cannot and does not accept any liability for whether or not or how you implement any training or other information we or related parties might provide. If you wish to obtain business advice specific to the context and needs of your business, we suggest that you independently approach and engage a suitable, competent and insured professional advisor, business coach or similar.

    • If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under this Agreement, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.
