Withdrawal and Postponement Policy

– Last-minute withdrawal/postponement (fewer than 30 days before the program commences) cause significant disruptions to scheduling and resource allocation. Applicants who fail to secure funding/ensure their availability before applying and subsequently withdraw at this late stage will face indefinite disqualification from future applications!

– In cases of postponement due to unforeseen circumstances, applicants must submit an official letter, signed and authorized by their supervisor, outlining the justifiable reasons for the request. This documentation is mandatory for consideration of a new training start date. However, approval is not guaranteed. If granted, this will constitute the final opportunity for rescheduling. Any subsequent modifications will result in program termination, with forfeiture of the non-refundable course fees as a penalty.

Non-compliance with these guidelines will result in application disqualification without further notice.
