The student will be required to pay the associated transfer fees - see the Transfer Policy below.

Payment Plan Deadlines

• Payment plans are automatically charged to your credit or debit card on file every 30 days.
• Payment plans must be completed at least 30 days before the first day of the course. If you select a payment plan that is not completed 30 days before the first day of the course, the whole of the balance due at this point will be processed on your card.

Transfer Policy

Students who register for a CHEK Institute Advanced Training Program and subsequently are unable to attend the program for whatever reason have five options:

1. The student may decide to attend another CHEK Institute Advanced Training Program at a later date and location. The student must complete an electronic Request for Transfer form which can be found at chekinstitute.com, complete a new Registration Form agreeing to new Terms and Conditions, and make the first monthly installment on a new payment plan if applicable. Transfer fee will be deducted from previous payments already made on original registration and any remaining credit balance will be applied to your new registration and payment plan will be adjusted according from second payment onwards.
2. The student may decide to complete Integrated Movement Science Level 1 Online. The student must complete an electronic Request for Transfer form, and make the first monthly installment on a new payment plan if applicable. Transfer fee will be deducted from previous payments already made on original registration and any remaining credit balance will be applied to the purchase of the online version.
3. The student may transfer their enrollment to a third party. Neither the CHEK Institute, CHEK Europe nor CHEK Institute Australia is responsible for and will not be involved in third party transactions; this is the responsibility of the student. Either the CHEK Institute (for courses held in the USA and Canada), CHEK Europe (for courses held in Europe) or CHEK Institute Australia (for courses held in Australia and New Zealand) must be notified in writing, the original student must complete a Request for Transfer form and the new student must attend the same Program date and location and sign a new Terms and Conditions form to officially transfer the enrollment.
4. The student may transfer out of the enrolled Program and keep the remaining tuition balance, minus the applicable transfer fee and minus a deduction for any free products received with the registration (calculated at the normal retail price of such products), as CHEK Institute Credit for use within one calendar year from date of transfer. The CHEK Institute Credit may then be used to purchase products and/or educational materials or to register for Advanced Training Programs.
5. The student may request a refund according to the Refund Policy below. Note that if the transfer is requested 60 days or less before the start date of the Program, this option is not available.

Transfer requests must be received at least 7 days prior to course start date. Transfer requests made after this date will only be considered in case of illness (supported by medical certificates) or bereavement.

Tuition refunds will be based on the date of official withdrawal. The official withdrawal date is the date that the CHEK Institute receives the written request for a refund. All refunds must be approved by the CHEK Institute, CHEK Europe or CHEK Institute Australia before being processed by the Accounting Department. Refunds will be processed within 30 days of the approval according to the following schedule:

Credit must be used within one calendar year from date of withdrawal. CHEK Institute Credit may be used to purchase products and/or educational materials or to register for Advanced Training Programs.
• Withdrawals received within 60 days of the original registration receive 50% refund of the total tuition paid to date minus any applicable transfer fees and deductions for free products, unless the original registration is received 90 days or less prior to the course start date in which case there is no refund and the balance paid, minus any applicable transfer fees and deductions for free products, may be retained as credit with the CHEK Institute (for courses held in the USA or Canada), CHEK Europe (for courses held in Europe) or CHEK Institute Australia (for courses held in Australia or New Zealand).

• Withdrawals received within 7 days or less of course start day (non-attendance is an assumed withdrawal) will forfeit any registration fees paid.

There are no refunds for students who registered as a group and received a group discount. Such students may transfer to another Program date and location, request a credit or transfer their registration to a third party by following the procedures listed above and paying the appropriate transfer fee.

If the student received any free product with their registration and subsequently requests a refund of the tuition, the normal retail price of such product(s) will be deducted from the amount of tuition paid to date, then the remaining balance will be used to calculate the amount of the refund.

Course Cancellation

The CHEK Institute reserves the right to cancel an event at our discretion. In the event of course cancellation by the CHEK Institute (for courses held in the USA or Canada), CHEK Europe (for courses held in Europe) or CHEK Institute Australia (for courses held in Australia or New Zealand), 100% of the tuition will be eligible for refund, the student may transfer to another Program without incurring a transfer fee, or the full amount of tuition paid may be kept with the CHEK Institute (for courses held in the USA or Canada), CHEK Europe (for courses held in Europe) or CHEK Institute Australia (for courses held in Australia or New Zealand) as CHEK Institute Credit for the purchase of products and/or educational materials or to register for Advanced Training Programs.

If a course is cancelled or postponed due to an Act of God, including but not limited to wars, earthquakes, terrorism, natural disasters, pandemics, etc., the CHEK Institute, CHEK Europe or CHEK Institute Australia reserves the right to offer students who are registered for the affected event, a place in a similar event or CHEK Institute Credit equal to the amount of the tuition paid which the student may use for the purchase of products and/or educational materials or to register for Advanced Training Programs. Tuition will not be refunded.
