At Manners on Point School of Etiquette, we are committed to providing exceptional learning experiences while maintaining fair and transparent policies for all participants. This Refund & Cancellation Policy explains the terms governing cancellations, transfers, substitutions and refunds for our programmes and services.
By registering for any programme or engaging our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agreed to this policy.

* Public workshops and masterclasses
* Children’s, tween and teen programmes
* Private coaching and consultations
* Corporate training programmes
* School-based programmes
* Camps, retreats and special events

Your place is confirmed only after:
* submission of the required registration information; and
* payment of the applicable deposit or programme fee, where required.

* Deposits paid to secure a place may be non-refundable.
* Refunds, where approved, may be subject to reasonable administrative charges.

Transfers:
* are subject to availability;
* must be requested before the programme begins; and
