You are responsible for ensuring that your order is complete and accurate. Your order must be made on our official enrolment form.

3.4 We reserve the right to withdraw any aspect of our Services, including any course, assessment or module or aspect thereof. We will write to inform you as soon as reasonably possible where any aspect of the Services you have ordered is no longer available. If you have already paid for the Services, we will refund to you the full amount you have paid to us (or a proportionate part thereof, as applicable).

3.5. Where your order consists of multiple courses, once we have a legally binding contract in place, you shall be liable for all courses forming part of that order.

3.6. We are not responsible for booking any examination with any professional body or examination board unless expressly agreed by us.

3.7 The name you state on your enrolment form will be the default name issued on the relevant certificate following successful completion of the course you have ordered.

Please note that you are responsible for updating us with any changes to your personal information. Any amendments you require to your course completion certificate (‘Certificate’) shall incur an administration fee of £30.

3.8 If you consider that you have any pre-requisite qualifications to enable you to skip any modules or courses, you must provide proof of them at the time of enrolment for verification by us. If we deem any of your qualifications to be invalid or that they do not fully comply with what is agreed upon enrolment, you may either: – (i) purchase the course or modules required to achieve such qualifications from us, which will be charged at our published rates at the time that you enrolled (ii) or, you may terminate the Contract and at our discretion you may be issued with a pro-rata refund based upon the amount of the Services you have not utilised. Failure to achieve such qualifications will result in us being unable to provide the relevant Certificates in respect of the Services you have ordered from us.

Cancellation and Variation etc

4.1. Subject to clause 4.2 below, where we have accepted / confirmed the Services being purchased by you and formed a legally binding agreement with you in accordance with clause 3.2 above, then you are permitted within 14 days starting on the day after the date we have issued confirmation of acceptance in accordance with clause 3.2, to cancel your purchase of the Services.

4.2. To apply to cancel this contract, please notify us in writing via email to info@jumpfitness.org or post to the addresses as provided in the Notices clause below. Please include details of your order to help us to identify it. We will email you to confirm we have received your cancellation. Your cancellation will be effective from when we have notified you that we have received such notice of cancellation. Please note that any refund due to you may be subject to any permitted deductions and you will have to pay the costs of return of any Course Materials (where applicable).

4.3. If you have already accessed, attended or downloaded all or part of the Services within the 14 days as set out at clause 4.1 then you shall have no right to cancel your order.

4.4. Notwithstanding clause 4.1 there is no other right to cancel or vary your purchase of Services (whether as a result of injury, whether sustained on the course or outside of it, or illness or otherwise) and any other cancellation and / or variation of course dates will be at our absolute discretion.

4.5. All refunds will be credited to the same card or bank account you used to pay for the Services. Refunds will be issued as soon as reasonably practicable following acknowledgment of cancellation.

4.6. Orders for combination packages (for example, level 2 gym instructing and level 3 personal training courses) will be treated as a single course for the purposes of this Contract. Refunds will therefore not be given for course downgrades. For example, if you were to downgrade a combination package to a Certificate in Gym Instruction Booking you will still be liable for the full combination package fee.

4.7.. Non-attendance of any training or assessment days will incur a £25 charge to re-book, unless cancellation is made at least 48 hours prior to the same taking place via our bookings team in writing. The relevant email for this purpose is info@jumpfitness.org.

4.8. Subject to clause 4.9, we operate a free, unlimited re-sit policy, however if you fail to attend any assessments booked without previously notifying us in accordance with clause 4.7 you will automatically forfeit your right to free re-sits and will be liable to pay us a fee of £25 for every subsequent re-sit.

4.9. All course levels have 24 months to complete from the point of sitting the first assessment. If you fail to pass the relevant course within this time frame you will need to pay us a re-registration charge of £495 for that particular level should you wish to continue with that particular course.

4.10 If you have enrolled onto a full time course and fail to turn up to the required course attendance dates, you will forfeit the full course fee as you have thus prevented another student from taking that placement and infringed costs onto Jump Fitness.

Fees and Payment Arrangements etc

5.1. The Fees for the Services shall be as stated at the time you place an order for them (or as otherwise agreed).

5.2. If you wish to change the scope of the Services after we accept, and we agree to such change, we will modify the Fees accordingly.

5.3. Unless otherwise specified at the time you purchase the Services, the Fees are inclusive of VAT but exclusive of any relevant third-party costs (where applicable). If applicable, any such costs will be made clear to you prior to you finalising the purchase of the Services.

5.5 Where you purchase our Services under a payment plan with a third party finance provider (including with Klarna or other third party finance provider), full details of the finance arrangements will be provided to you relating to such plan and you will remain directly liable to such provider for all payments agreed pursuant to such third party agreement.

5.6 Where we have agreed that you may pay via an in-house payment plan (i.e. payment by standing order instalments arranged directly with us) (‘In-House Payment Plan’), we will take your first payment upon acceptance of your order and will take subsequent payments monthly in advance by standing order.

5.7 Where we have agreed an In-House Payment Plan with you and you are not up-to-date with your payment, then without prejudice to any other rights are remedies we may have pursuant to the contract, we may at our discretion elect to apply any or all of the following sanctions until all outstanding Fees are paid in full:-

(i) refuse to mark your coursework;

(ii) deny you access to examinations or not process the results; and

You must give us no less than 10 working days written notice before taking any such payment holiday by emailing info@jumpfitness.org. We will not impose any of the sanctions as set down in clause 5.7 whilst you are on a valid payment holiday.

5.11. You shall be responsible for all costs you incur in connection with your attendance at any of our courses, including all travel, visa, subsistence and any overnight accommodation etc.

5.12. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices stated for the Services as advertised are correct; however on rare occasions it is possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Services may be priced incorrectly. In those cases, the provisions of clause 5.13 apply.

5.13. Where the correct price for the Services is less than the price as stated, we will charge the lower amount. Where the correct price for the Services is higher than the price stated, we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Services at the correct price or cancelling your order. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing. However, if we mistakenly accept and process your order whereby a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may (acting reasonably) cancel supply of the Services and refund you any sums you have paid.

5.14. For the avoidance of any doubt, regardless of how your Fees are paid, it is your responsibility to ensure that all payments that are due to us are paid promptly at all times. We shall be entitled to charge interest on late payments at the relevant default interest rate to be applied from time to time. Where it proves necessary to commence legal proceedings and / or instruct debt recovery and civil enforcement agents to collect outstanding debts, we shall be entitled to recover all associated court fees, legal and other costs and expenses of such recovery in addition to the debt and interest. The current fees payable to our debt recovery and civil enforcement agents represent 20% of debt which shall be deductible.
