When do I have to pay?

If you enrol after that date, you pay € 500 within 7 days after enrolling. You pay the rest of the course price before December 15th of the year your course starts, no matter when you enrolled.

Can I quit in the middle of a course? What if I stop because of medical reasons?

If you decide to leave a course after it has started you will not get a refund. A (partial) refund for one or more classes that you missed because of illness is not possible.

The only exception is if you have to stop the course completely because of medical reasons. You will need to hand in a doctor’s note which can verify that you’re unable to continue with the course. In this case you’ll only have to pay for the classes you’ve already attended. If you can present a doctor's certificate in advance for the entire duration of the course, the course fee will be refunded.

Accomodation costs
Accomodation costs can never be refunded when you cancel yourself.

Can WISPER cancel a course?
WISPER reserves the right to cancel a course if there aren’t enough registrations or if the teacher falls ill or cannot teach due to unforeseen circumstances. In this case your registration fee will be fully refunded. We do not however offer any additional compensation.

Want to cancel but do you feel like your situation is not (quite) covered by these conditions? Contact us and we will work out a solution together!
