BMG Cancellation Policy

Cancellation by attendee:
Course attendance cannot be cancelled online; attendees need to call the Mountain Training office.
If a booking is made in error and a cancellation is made within 14 days of booking, a full refund will be made.
All refunds made, except those made within 14 days of booking, will be subject to a minimal charge due to CMS transaction charges incurred which cannot be reclaimed. This charge is £7.50 for refunds up to £300 and 2.5% of refunds above £300.

If cancellations are received up to eight weeks before the course, attendees will get a full refund (less CMS transaction fee); less than eight weeks, but more than four weeks before the course: 50% refund (less CMS transaction fee); less than four weeks before the course date: no refund unless a reserve is able to fill the slot.
Late non-attendance due to unforeseen circumstances needs to be reported ASAP direct to the course provider, so that arrangements can be made to allow reserves to attend.

Cancellation by the BMG:
The BMG will cancel workshops/courses which do not meet the minimum attendance criteria no less than four weeks before the course date, and a full refund will be given. Every effort is made to deliver all of the advertised courses, however as these are non-profitmaking, the BMG reserves the right to cancel a course should there be insufficient attendees to cover the costs.

Cancellation by trainer:
If the provider cannot run the course at the last minute due to injury or illness, and cannot find an alternative provider, it is their responsibility to notify candidates of the last-minute cancellation. The BMG will refund the candidate in full and no payment will be made to the provider.
