OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU
These terms and conditions apply to the order by you to book on one of our courses and to our
provision of the services to you when delivering the courses (‘the Contract’). These terms and
conditions apply to the exclusion of any other terms that you seek to impose or incorporate, or
which are implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing. The Contract is the entire
agreement between you and us in relation to its subject matter. Once you have booked with us and
we have accepted your booking by email, the Contract between you and us will come into
existence.
We draw your specific attention to our Cancellation Policy and Health Information below:
PAYMENT
If all 3 Parts are booked together in the same venue on consecutive dates, you can either pay
altogether or a 25% non-refundable deposit via Gocardless, this must be received with a completed
application form to ensure a place, subject to terms and conditions.
On receiving your application we will email you an invoice. We ask that you pay your deposit
within 7 days. Please ensure you provide a telephone number and correct email address.
You can pay via our secure GoCardless system for deposit option or make a direct bank transfer for
full payment only. Once this has been confirmed you will be booked on the course and sent joining
instructions-if the deposit is not paid within this time we will not be able to hold your place.
Following deposit, your place is only guaranteed up until the date of your final balance (6 weeks
before training) and eligibility to attend is confirmed. PLEASE ensure payment is on the due date
as we will not always be able to send a reminder-the GoCardless will automatically take this from
the account you sign it to, we cannot guarantee your place if the payment is received after the final
payment date.
The deposit option only applies to self funding bookings of 3 Parts in same venue on consecutive dates
advertised as one course. If individual parts are booked then full payment must be received on
booking to confirm your place.
Full payment must be made when applications are submitted within 6 weeks of the first training
day. This can be made via secure credit card (no charge) debit card transaction (no charge) or bank
transfer (no charge), once your eligibility to attend is confirmed.
Employer Payments
If the delegates employer is funding the course, and the payment is delayed by 3 months or more
the delegate will be charged the course fees.
If the delegate books on the course and an invoice is raised and we have confirmed your place the
cancellation fees still apply and your employer will still be charged even if you cancel your training out of the cancellation period.
Cheques are accepted but there is a £10 charge, please add this to your bill if paying by cheque.
CANCELLATION POLICY
YOUR ORDER AND OBTAINING A REFUND
Please read this section as whole before submitting any request for a cancellation to us. Time frames
to cancel are as follows:
Less than 4 weeks: No refunds are permitted when a cancellation is made less than 4 weeks prior
to the date of your first booked training day.
Between 4 and 6 weeks: A 50% refund will be made if you cancel between 4 and 6 weeks prior to
the date of your first booked training day.
6 weeks or more: A 75% refund will be made if you cancel with 6 weeks’ notice prior to the date
of your first booked training day.
Method of cancelling: To be effective, cancellations must be in writing and sent to us by email or
by recorded delivery. To cancel, please write to us (by recorded delivery) to The EMDR Academy,
8 The Dale, Tiverton, Tarporley, Cheshire, CW6 9ND or by email info@emdracademy.co.uk
If you are emailing us or writing to us please include details of your order to
help us to identify it. If you send us your cancellation notice by email or by recorded delivery, then
your cancellation is effective from the date you send us the email or if by recorded delivery, the
date the letter is received by us. With email, you will have given us notice in time as long as you
get your email to us before midnight on that day.
For the avoidance of doubt, if you are booked on an all 3 parts of the course, then this is calculated
as one booking with one start date. Accordingly, please use the date of your first booked training
day for Part 1 as the relevant date for calculation of cancelling your order, if required.
The cancellation periods enable us to remain cost effective and allows us time to try and fill a
cancelled booking. With regret therefore, no refunds will be made if the cancellation periods are not
adhered to (even when your non- attendance is due to sickness or bereavement).
IF YOU WANT TO TRANSFER TO ANOTHER TRAINING DATE/COURSE
Deferring or transferring to any other training within EMDR Academy is only possible with 4
weeks or more notice prior to the first day of the course and is dependent on a place being
available. This incurs an administrative charge of £75 + VAT = £90.
If you had received the discount for booking all 3 parts consecutively in the same venue you will be
asked to pay this back as you are no longer eligible for this discount. This discount is £122.50.
Therefore, making your total transfer fee £197.50 (£122.50 + £75 administration charge) plus VAT
= £237.
HEALTH ADVICE
Please do get in touch with us if you are in the 1st or 3rd trimester of pregnancy.
This is because you work on some of your own memories during the course which may
increase your emotions and you may find upsetting or cause distress. We sometimes have
delegates that are pregnant and attend the course. We advise those that do attend do so purely at
their own risk because they will still have to work on their own material during the course as an
essential part of the training. If they still attend we then advise them to work with easier / safer
memories.
Please also inform the trainer prior to the training if you suffer with vertigo, inner ear
problems, migraines or epilepsy.
We will not be held liable for any decisions made about your own health. It is up to you to
contact a health professional if you are concerned about your health.
TRAINING REQUIREMENTS
There shall be at least 8 weeks between training parts to allow for practice and supervision,
according to regulations set out by the accrediting body, EMDR Europe. You must use EMDR with
at least three clients over the 3 Part training and participate in the clinical supervision hours
provided on the course to gain your accredited training certificate. You must attend all hours of the
training (0900-1730) across each of the 7 days to gain your accredited training certificate. You must
work on your own material/memories during each part of the training and full course participation
is expected.
IF THE STRESS & TRAUMA CENTRE LTD HAD TO CANCEL A TRAINING
In the unlikely event of the course being cancelled or postponed for reasons outside of our control,
The Stress & Trauma Centre Ltd will not be liable for travel and/or accommodation costs incurred.
However, the full registration fee will be refunded or alternative dates arranged or we will replace
our EMDR trainer with another EMDR trainer from our team if possible.

delegate if the original delegate is unable to attend. If we accept a substitution, there will be a
mandatory additional administration charge of £50 +VAT payable in advance of the course start
date. Please contact The Stress & Trauma Centre to discuss this at least 14 calendar days before the
