Additional Policies:
Mentorship allocation
Students have 9 weeks from the date they are assigned a mentor to complete their mentor led module training and progress on to the next part of the course. This forms part of the formal accreditation and if these requirements are not fulfilled within the 9 week timeframe, the student will need to pay a restart fee of £200 for Wedding and Funeral Certification or £150 for Naming Certification. This fee allows the student to enter the mentor allocation pool again and be matched with a new mentor in 7 working days. The student will pick up where they left off in the course modules with their previous mentor. There is no difference in restart fee based on how much progress was previously made. The restart fee covers the administrative costs of re-allocating a new mentor and continuing the training from the last completed module. Please note the new mentor may be different than the original one assigned.
The restart fee will apply each time a student does not complete the mentor led requirements within the 9 week timeframe allocated with their assigned mentor. Students can restart with a new mentor at any point, as long as it is within 12 months of initial course enrollment access. Each time the 9 week mentoring period ends without completion, the restart fee will be charged again to reallocate a new mentor and continue where they left off. This restart fee is applicable for each subsequent 9 week mentor allocation that does not result in fulfilment of accreditation criteria within the mentoring period. Our goal is for every student to successfully become an accredited celebrant within their 12 month course access. Please reach out if you need any assistance getting back on track.
12 month policy for course access.
Course Access Reactivation Policy:
Students have 12 months of access to the certification course materials and resources from the date of initial enrollment. If the course is not completed within the initial 12 month period, students may choose to reactivate their access for an additional 12 months by paying a £200 reactivation fee. This will extend the course end date by another year from the date of reactivation. Reactivation can only be done once the initial access period has expired. Course access may be reactivated at any point after expiration for up to 2 years from the initial enrollment date by paying this fee. If a student does not reactivate their access within 2 years, they will have to re-enroll in the full certification programme again at the current programme price. The reactivation fee covers administrative and materials costs associated with prolonging course access beyond the typical 12 month timeframe. It allows an additional year for students to complete requirements if they were unable to do so initially within the standard access period. Please contact our course manager to discuss reactivating expired course access.
