Terms & Conditions

These terms and conditions apply to all bookings, purchases and dealings between SCJ Training Ltd ("SCJ Training", "we", "us", "our") and the customer ("you"). They form the complete agreement between us and replace any previous terms. Please read them carefully before booking a course or purchasing goods.

 

1. About Us

SCJ Training Ltd is a company registered in England and Wales under company number 09585398. Our registered office is 10 Southfield Close, Wetwang, Driffield, YO25 9XQ. Our VAT number is 212761140. SCJ Training is not currently registered for VAT and VAT will not be added to any price unless specifically stated.

 

2. Bookings and Payment

2.1 Forming a Contract

A binding contract is formed when we confirm acceptance of your booking in writing (by email or letter). We will issue an invoice at or before this point.

 

2.2 Payment Terms

Payment is due within 30 days of the invoice date, or at least 14 days before the start of the earliest course — whichever is sooner. If a booking is made less than 14 days before a course starts, full payment is required before the course commences.

 

2.3 Certification

Where a course leads to a certificate or qualification, we reserve the right to withhold certification until payment has been received in full.

 

2.4 Overdue Payments

If payment is not received by the due date, we may charge interest in accordance with the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998. We also reserve the right to recover any reasonable costs incurred in pursuing outstanding debt.

 

3. Cancellations and Refunds

3.1 Cancellation by You

If you wish to cancel a booking, you must notify us in writing by email to info@scjtraining.co.uk or by registered post. Cancellations will not be accepted by telephone.

 

·  If we receive your written cancellation more than 10 working days before the course start date, we will issue a full refund of any course fees paid.

·  If we receive your written cancellation 10 working days or fewer before the course start date, the full course fee remains payable and no refund will be given.

 

3.2 Consumer Cancellation Rights

If you are booking as a consumer (not in the course of a business), you have the right to cancel within 14 days of making your booking under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. However, if the course is due to start within 14 days of booking and you have expressly agreed for the service to begin within that period, your right to cancel will end once the course has commenced.

 

3.3 Non-Attendance and Failure

If a delegate does not attend the full course for any reason, the full course fee remains payable and no refund will be given. No refund will be given if a delegate fails a course and SCJ Training makes no guarantee that any delegate will successfully pass any course. It is your responsibility to ensure delegates are booked onto and attend the correct course.

 

3.4 Cancellation by Us

We reserve the right to cancel, reschedule or amend course dates, times, venues or content. We will give you as much notice as possible and offer a suitable alternative where one is available. If no suitable alternative is available and you do not wish to rebook, we will issue a full refund of the course fee. No further compensation will be payable.

 

4. Goods – Returns and Defects

4.1 Returns

To return goods you must first obtain a Goods Return Number (GRN) by contacting us and providing your invoice number. Returns will not be accepted without a valid GRN. Goods must be returned in their original packaging, unopened and unused, within 14 days of the GRN being issued. You are responsible for the cost of return postage unless the goods are faulty, damaged or incorrectly supplied.

 

4.2 Defects on Delivery

Please inspect all goods on delivery. Any visible defects must be reported to us in writing within 7 days of delivery, after which we will repair or replace the goods at no charge. Defects reported after this period may be repaired or replaced at your expense.

 

4.3 Title and Risk

Ownership of goods passes to you only once full payment has been received. Risk of loss or damage passes to you on delivery. Until payment is made in full, we reserve the right to enter your premises during business hours to inspect and reclaim unpaid goods. You must not sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of goods before title has passed to you.

 

5. Our Liability

5.1 What We Are Liable For

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law.

 

5.2 What We Are Not Liable For

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any loss of profit, anticipated savings, revenue, goodwill or business opportunity, or for any indirect or consequential loss or damage, whether arising in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise.

 

Our total liability to you under or in connection with any contract will not exceed the total amount paid or payable by you under that contract.

 

We are not liable for any injury to persons or damage to property arising from a failure to follow the guidelines, instructions or safety requirements set out by SCJ Training during courses or in our published materials.

 

6. Your Responsibilities

You are responsible for ensuring that:

·  All information provided to us when making a booking is accurate and complete

·  Delegates meet any stated pre-requisites, fitness requirements or eligibility criteria for the course

·  Delegates arrive on time and attend the full course

·  All health and safety guidelines and instructions given by our instructors are followed at all times

 

You agree to indemnify us against any loss or expense we suffer as a result of inaccurate information, errors in your booking, changes you request to the contract, or personal injury or damage caused by a failure to follow our guidelines.

 

7. Insolvency

If you become bankrupt, enter liquidation, administration or administrative receivership, or cease or threaten to cease trading, we may cancel any outstanding contracts without liability and all sums owed to us will become immediately due and payable.

 

8. Variations

These terms may only be varied by written agreement signed by an authorised representative of SCJ Training Ltd.

 

9. Notices

Any written notice given under these terms must be sent by registered post or email with read receipt to the relevant party's registered office or last known address.

 

10. Third Party Rights

No person or organisation who is not a party to a contract formed under these terms has any right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of that contract.

 

11. Dispute Resolution

We hope to resolve any disputes informally in the first instance — please contact us at info@scjtraining.co.uk. If a dispute cannot be resolved, either party may refer the matter to mediation with a mediator agreed by both parties. If no agreement on a mediator can be reached, one may be appointed by the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) or a similar body.

 

12. Governing Law

These terms and conditions are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Both parties agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.
