If we cannot accept your enrolment. If we are unable to accept your enrolment, for example where you have provided incomplete or inaccurate information, we will inform you of this.

4. Your rights to make changes

If you wish to make a change to the Course you have applied for please contact us. We will let you know if the change is possible. If it is possible we will let you know about any changes to the price of the Course, the timing of supply or anything else which would be necessary as a result of your requested change and ask you to confirm whether you wish to go ahead with the change. An administrative fee may be payable.

5. Our rights to make changes

Minor changes to the Courses. We may change the Course and these terms:
- To reflect changes in procurement and supply practice;
- To update the practice assessments from time to time;
- To reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements;
- To implement minor technical adjustments and improvements, which will not affect the delivery of a Course; and
- To ensure consistency with UK professional education sector practice and guidance.
More significant changes to the Courses and these terms. In addition, we may make the following changes to these terms or the Course, but if we do so we will notify you in advance and you may then contact us to end the contract and receive a full refund before the changes take effect:
- To increase Course fees to proportionately reflect the costs associated with establishing and providing the Course;
- To correct errors;
- By adding or removing optional modules; and
- If a third party such as a government body, an awarding body or professional institute which governs a Course imposes the changes on us, such as amending a policy or procedure, changing the syllabus or method of assessment.
Updates to digital content. We may update or require you to update digital content. We may from time to time make modifications, enhancements or issue clarifications (for example, to clarify ambiguous regulatory drafting) to audiovisual, interactive or written courses, and our system requirements. Access to such changes will be free of charge to the extent that such changes relate to the Course purchased by you at the applicable time, during the period for which the digital content is available for your Course. The updated digital content shall always match the description of it that we provided to you before you bought it.

6. Providing the Courses

Acceptance of your enrolment on your Course. You are formally accepting these terms and conditions and your enrolment on the Course by purchasing a Course on the CIPS On Demand website.
Access. Full level courses: Access to your Course is available for 15 months from enrolment. By contacting Student Services, there is also an option to extend your full level course access for an additional 3 months for free and then again for a further 3 months, subject to an extension fee.
Modular courses: Access to your Course is available for 6 months from enrolment. A one month free extension may only be granted in extenuating circumstances
Course updates. From time to time certain courses and/or study materials may be superseded by new legislation, new syllabi or the issue of new regulations. If this arises then we may produce courses covering the new material. For the avoidance of doubt, purchase of a current Course does not as part of the original purchase price entitle access to future revised courses and further amounts may be due.
We are not responsible for delays outside our control. If provision of the Courses is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any part of the Course you have paid for but not received.
Reasons we may suspend the provision of a Course to you. We may have to suspend the provision of a Course, for example to:
- Deal with technical problems or make technical changes;
- Make changes to a Course as notified by us to you (see clause 5); and
- Complete any disciplinary procedure.
Your rights if we suspend the provision of a Course. We will contact you in advance to tell you we will be suspending provision of a Course, unless the problem is urgent or an emergency. You may contact us to end the contract for a Course if we suspend it, or tell you we are going to suspend it and we will refund any sums you have paid in advance for part of the Course that you have paid for but not received.
We may also suspend provision of a Course if you do not pay. If you do not pay us for a Course when you are supposed to (see clauses 3 and 11) and you still do not make payment within a further 7 days, or if your sponsoring employer or third party funder does not pay us, we may suspend provision of the Course until you have paid us the outstanding amounts. We will contact you to tell you we are suspending provision of the Course. We will not suspend the Course where you dispute the unpaid invoice (see clause 11e). We will not charge you for the Course during the period for which it is suspended. As well as suspending the Course we can also charge you interest on your overdue payments (see clause 11e).

All intellectual property rights (including copyright) in a Course or other learning materials and the materials on this website (as well as the organisation and layout of this website) together with the underlying software code belong to us, or another company in the same group of companies as us and/or CIPS, or by our licensors.
Licence of Intellectual Property. We will allow you to use the applicable study materials in a personal capacity for the purposes of studying on the Course. That permission will end when this Contract ends. You agree that you will only use any study materials and/ or digital content for study purposes and that you will not copy, make available, transmit, reproduce, sell, licence, distribute, publish or broadcast or otherwise circulate the materials. The contents of this website may be downloaded, printed or copied for your personal non-commercial use.

You must not disclose it to any third party. We have the right to disable any user identification code or password, whether chosen by you or allocated by us, at any time, if in our reasonable opinion you have failed to comply with any of the provisions of these terms of use. If you know or suspect that anyone other than you knows your user identification code or password, you must promptly notify us at enquiries@cipsondemand.com.

7. Your rights to end the contract

- If you want to end the contract because of something we have done or have told you we are going to do, see section 7b;
- If you have just changed your mind about a Course, see sections 7b(vi), 7c and 7d. You will be entitled to a refund if you cancel within the 14-day Cancellation Period.

If you cancel after the Start Date, you must pay us for the elements of the Course provided to you up until the time you tell us you have changed your mind. If we delivered digital content to you immediately, and you agreed to this when you applied, you will not have the right to change your mind, and will have to pay us for that element of the Course.

10. If there is a problem with the Course

How to tell us about problems. If you have any questions or complaints about the Course, please contact us. You can contact our customer service team at enquiries@cipsondemand.com.
Our complaints procedure is found at Annex 2. If you wish to make a formal complaint once you have read the policy, please do so using our complaints form or alternatively use the details found in clause 10a.

11. Fees and payment

Where to find the fees for the Course. The fees of the Course (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the booking page when you make your booking. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the price of the Course advised to you is correct. However please see clause 11c for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the Course.
We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your enrolment date and the Course Start Date, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Course in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
What happens if we got the fees wrong. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Courses we provide may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your enrolment so that, where the Course's correct fees at your enrolment date is less than our stated price at your enrolment date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Course's correct price at your enrolment date is higher than the fees stated, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your enrolment.
When you must pay and how you must pay. We accept payment with Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Visa Delta/ Debit/ Electron, Maestro, Solo, Diners Card, JCB. You can also pay using PayPal. Please note that certain card or payment providers may charge their own administration fees for each transaction. When you must pay depends on what Course you have enrolled on:
- If you are a sponsored student and your employer is paying your fees, we will give you access to digital content and start providing your Course once your employer has paid us, or has agreed payment terms with us. If you are not a sponsored student, we will give you access to digital content and start providing your Course once you have paid us, have obtained a loan or agreed payment terms with us.
- For digital content, you must pay for these before you access them.
- For services you must pay the fees in advance.
- If you choose to pay for a full level in 3 instalments, you can place your order directly on our website and pay by debit or credit card. You will be asked for your card details at the checkout where you can pay securely. Kaplan will continue to take two further payments in month 4 and month 8. You will be sent email reminders 1 week before payment is due.
- If payment fails, a notification email will be sent to the student. We will then try to take payment again after 3 days, if it fails again we will attempt after 5 days. Finally, if it still fails after 7 days the course will be cancelled and the course access will be taken away. As soon as payment is received the course will be made active again.
We can charge interest if you pay late. If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% a year above the base lending rate of Barclays Bank from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
What to do if you think an invoice is wrong. If you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know and we will not charge you interest until we have resolved the issue.
Third Party funding. If your employer is sponsoring your studies then additional documentation may need to be completed prior to enrolment. Please note that if funding is not received or ceases then we will end this contract as set out in clause 9a (ii).

12. Our responsibility for loss or damage suffered by you

We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you knew it might happen, for example, if you discussed it with us during the enrolment process.
If defective digital content which we have supplied damages a device or digital content belonging to you and this is caused by our failure to use reasonable care and skill we will either repair the damage or pay you compensation. However, we will not be liable for damage which you could have avoided by following our advice to apply an update offered to you free of charge or for damage which was caused by you failing to correctly follow installation instructions or to have in place the minimum system requirements advised by us. It is your responsibility to use virus checking software.
We are not liable for business losses. We only supply the Courses for domestic and private use. If you use the Courses for any commercial, business or re-sale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

13. How we may use your personal information

We will use the personal information you provide to us:

To supply a Course to you;
To process your payment for a Course; and
If you agreed to this during the enrolment process, to inform you about similar Courses that we provide, but you may stop receiving these at any time by contacting us.

We may share your personal information:

If you are a sponsored student, we will share your data, course attendance and test results with your employer or any other party responsible for paying your fees.
With Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply as the relevant professional body for your Course.
With other companies or organisations we have hired to perform services on our behalf including, without limitation, training services, carrying out market research, facilitating some aspects of our site and services, managing our database, contacting you, sending e-mail and fulfilling your requests.

With other business divisions and subsidiaries of Kaplan, Inc. (our "Affiliated Businesses") that provide services we think might interest you.
With a third party in connection with a change in or corporate structure such as, but not limited to, merger, consolidation, sale, liquidation, or transfer of substantial assets.

Pop-up blockers and firewalls. Your web browser may have active pop-up blockers to suppress unwanted advertising. Similarly, you may be behind a content-blocking device such as a firewall. It may be necessary to reconfigure or disable these. If you are accessing the learning platform from work or in a public place you may have to contact the system administrator to do this.

15. Other important terms

We may transfer this agreement to someone else. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happened and we will ensure that the transfer does not affect your rights under this contract.
Courses are not transferrable between students.
Students must not share any online content with nor make their online passwords available to any third parties including other students.
Nobody else has any rights under this contract. Unless you are sponsored by your employer, this contract is between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms. Neither of us will need to get the agreement of any other person in order to end the contract or make any changes to these terms.
If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the Courses, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. By agreeing to these terms and conditions you are agreeing that these terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the Courses in the English courts.
You should satisfy yourself that you will not be in breach of any law where you are resident if this is outside of the UK. If applicable, when ordering study materials for delivery (other than in the UK), you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once the goods reach the specified destination. Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country, so you should contact your local customs office for further information. Additionally, please note that when you order study materials from Kaplan Publishing, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the study materials.

Annex 2 - Complaints procedure

1. Complaint Definition

‘An expression of dissatisfaction with any individual, service or lack of service where a response is reasonably expected, and has not been resolved by an informal approach’.

2. Introduction

The following describes Kaplan Financial’s Customer Complaints Policy. This document will apply to Customers (Students/learners and employers) who are dissatisfied with the provision of Kaplan’s services and wish to make a formal complaint. The procedure may be used by existing and prospective customers.

3. Principles

Kaplan constantly seeks to improve services and aims, therefore, to deal thoroughly, objectively and fairly with any complaint about business services, and to offer an appropriate remedy to anyone who is adversely affected by a service which fails to meet our standards.

Customers, either individually or collectively, are entitled to raise legitimate complaints and criticisms. Kaplan will not penalise anyone for making a legitimate complaint about College services. This entitlement is balanced by the requirement that the rights are not misused, and that the professional reputation of members of staff are protected. Disciplinary action may be taken if a complaint is shown to be malicious, frivolous, or vexatious.
It is expected that the documentation generated during the complaint procedure will remain confidential and that this will be respected by all parties.
Kaplan cannot deal fully with anonymous complaints, as a personal response would no longer be an option. Kaplan considers those about whom complaints are being made have the right to know the basis of the complaint and what is being claimed. A copy of relevant documentation will be forwarded to the person who is the subject of the complaint. Kaplan will, however, always ensure that the complainant’s identity is not disclosed, or implied as the complaint is investigated, without informing the relevant party first.
If the complainant is concerned about revealing their identity advice may be sought from anyone at the local centre or familiar to the Customer.
Customers are advised to raise the issue informally and ONLY ONCE with the Head of the appropriate Department or any other appropriate individual familiar to the Customer. It is anticipated that the vast majority of complaints will be resolved at this stage. This is the first and preferred method of resolution, without recourse to formal procedures. Informal complaints will be logged by the College at this stage which will override any further informal approach made by any other individual subsequent to this.

4. Types of Complaint covered by this policy

This is a single complaints procedure to cover different types of Customer complaint or grievance, which can be used to complain about any service the College provides. The list is not exhaustive, but is likely to fall under the following categories:

The behaviour of another Customer, i.e. student or member of staff
Complaints arising from your educational experience e.g. poor teaching or supervision
Complaints in respect of academic and/or administrative support or other services.
Complaints relating to Government Funding will be investigated as per the Skills Funding Agency’s procedure - a copy of this can be provided on request.

5. Complaints affecting a number of Students

If the complaint is shared by a number of Students it should be raised collectively as a group and follow the procedure outlined above. If the group of Students/learners will be submitting a letter of complaint for any of the stages it should be signed by all concerned.

6. Appeal against Outcome

If, on receiving the response, the Customer considers that:

not all the evidence has been considered in reaching a judgement;
the decision you have received is unfair or unlawful; or
despite your complaint being upheld, you have still been disadvantaged;

an appeal can be made in writing to the Complaints Officer for the case to be reconsidered on any of these grounds. Both parties to any complaint have the right to appeal, within seven working days of learning of the outcome of the hearing. Grounds for appeal must include additional evidence to that submitted originally, and should indicate in writing why the response to the complaint is not satisfactory. Taking into account all the previous attempts at resolution, the Senior Management team will make the final decision.

7. Customer Complaints Procedure

Kaplan’s Senior Management team has overall responsibility for the complaints procedure. It monitors the complaints and comments received, and the effectiveness of this procedure in addressing them. Subject to complaints being dealt with on an individual basis, the Senior Management team will review any common causes or patterns of complaints which emerge.

The Complaints Officer is responsible for arranging, recording and ensuring that decisions are conveyed to the Senior Management team. All detailed documentation will be kept confidentially.

8. Stages of the Procedure

Informal stage

If you are considering making a complaint you are strongly advised to raise the issue informally with the appropriate Head of Department or member of staff you feel comfortable with. It is anticipated that the vast majority of complaints will be resolved at this stage. Your informal complaint will be logged and you will not be able to use the informal complaint route subsequently through any other individual. This is the preferred method of resolution, without recourse to formal procedures.

Formal stage

If you are unable to resolve your complaint informally, you will need to provide us with details in writing to the Complaints Officer as soon as possible after the events about which you are concerned occurred, normally within fourteen working days. Kaplan may not be able to investigate your complaint properly if you delay.

The information must be submitted on the official complaints form. The online version of the form is available here.

If you are unable to access this form, please contact the Complaints Officer complaints@kaplan.co.uk for an alternative version of the form that can be submitted as a hard copy.

You will need to provide:

your name
a contact address (and preferably telephone and email address)
your programme of study
the date on which the problem arose
whether anyone else was affected, or saw what happened
the response you would like from us
any supporting evidence.

Please note that certified copies of documents (e.g. medical certificates) may be requested.

You will receive a confirmation that the complaint has been received.

The investigation will be undertaken by our independent Complaints Officer who will respond within fourteen working days of receiving your complaint to let you know the outcome of the investigation and details of any actions to be taken. If Kaplan is unable to do so, you will be informed about how much longer it will take. You, and any individual against whom the complaint is being made, are entitled to submit written evidence to the Complaints Officer in support of your respective positions.

If at any time during this stage, or later, you would like to try to resolve your complaint informally, you can do this by contacting the Complaints Officer.

9. The possible outcomes of the formal complaint are as follows:

Complaint not upheld (if the complaint is felt not to be warranted)
Complaint upheld in whole or in part (if the complaint, or part of it, is felt to be fair in any of its elements)

In the event of a complaint being upheld in whole or in part, recommendations will be made in respect of remedial action required. A response may be required from the individuals concerned, within a set timeframe.

Kaplan will respond by detailing how the complaint has been investigated, the evidence used, the conclusion reached, and, if appropriate, the steps to be taken to resolve the matter. Kaplan may not be able to give you the precise redress you asked for, but you will have an opportunity of saying whether or not you are satisfied with the proposals.
