2. Participant fees/billing

The stated participation fee is due upon registration and must be paid using the payment method shown on the website (private payer). Corporate customers may be invoiced if this has been agreed in advance. For company first aiders, who must be at least 15.5 years old on the day of the course, we need a completed and stamped form of relevant employers' liability insurance association. Participants are usually asked to hand this form to the instructor. Please refer to the regulations of the relevant employers' liability insurance association. Any participation fees not covered by the association will be charged to the client. In the event that the requisite form is not received within ten working days of the event, the company will be invoiced at the prevailing public rate. Submitting the form at a later date will no longer allow you to cancel the invoice. Failure to submit the KUVB or LUK cost coverage form within ten working days will result in the client being invoiced at the applicable public rate for each participant.

If participation is canceled later or in the event of a no-show, the full participation fee will be charged, irrespective of the reason for which the client or course participant withdraws. The cancellation fee will be charged to the course participant or the client. The cancellation fee is waived if a substitute participant is named to take part in the course.
