There is a $50 non-refundable deposit to list in individual subjects (this is part of the total fee and is not an extra charge). We provide substantial educational and training resources to each student and require a minimum of two weeks to finalise resources and student materials. Late payment may result in materials delays (ie. not getting books on time). If a class is full or if there are not enough students, you will be notified and may commence training at the next scheduled class time. If you list for a class and do not attend there are fees associated depending on when you cancel, please see below or check our NHA Policies and Student Info under Info > PDF Documents. External study subjects must be paid for in full prior to receiving study material. Refund PolicyWithdraw from a subject with 14 days or more notice prior to commencement, a full refund or credit transfer to another subject will be given less a cancellation fee of $50 (non-refundable deposit). Withdraw with less than 14 days notice prior to commencement an administration fee of $100 is charged and the balance refunded or it may be transferred to another subject. Withdraw with less than 48 hours notice prior to commencement, half course fees will be refunded or transferred.Withdraw once a subject has commenced (or you have the subject material) no refunds will apply. You may apply for a credit transfer to the same subject at a future date, incurring a $50 transfer fee. In the event that a student does not commence a subject on the commencement date, subject fees will be non-refundable but will be transferrable with a $50 transfer fee.
