Withdrawal of registration is possible free of charge up to 15 calendar days before the course start. In case of later withdrawal with a medical certificate, the module may be made up, but we charge an administrative fee of CHF 50.00. In case of later withdrawal without a medical certificate as well as withdrawal during the course, we charge the full course fees, except in cases of force majeure. This also applies to ECAP employees. Cancellation must be made in writing.

If the reasons for withdrawal lie with ECAP, participants will incur no costs.

Anyone who misses course days 2 and/or 3 of a module for health reasons can make these up in another module. A medical certificate is expressly requested. If participation on the 1st course day is not possible due to illness, it cannot be made up; instead, the entire module must be repeated in full.
