General:
HITsa will charge a fee for all training conducted. This fee may be paid by either the student, employer or a third party. Fees must be paid in full on the first day of attendance unless a qualification course, and in this instance a payment plan must have been agreed upon, documented and signed off by all parties.

Your request must be approved by HITsa Management prior to commencement of training and receipt of any training materials associated with the course.
