TRAINING COURSES
Our certified training courses are designed and delivered according to the professional standards of the organisations who accredit them and are the basis for the relevant professional membership conferred.
Course Fees
Course fees are comprehensive of all training material and their delivery. Course fees do not include the cost of accommodation, car parking fees and meals/refreshments other than those specified for a particular course. Course fees do not include post-training registration or membership fees charged by professional bodies. Current registration and membership information and fees can be found for the British Psychological Society (BPS) at https://www.bps.org.uk/qualifications-and-fees; and for the Association for Coaching (AC) at https://www.associationforcoaching.com/page/MemBecomeMember. Course fees must be pre-paid. In-house fees that are agreed on a per-group rather than per-delegate basis cannot be revised and the full fee is due regardless of how many delegates subsequently attend for training. Group course fee discounts may be offered on a sliding scale by group size (min. 8) but it is the responsibility of the commissioning organisation to ensure agreed group size is attained to avail of the fee schedule. Fees paid for in-house courses apply only to the presentation of the course as designated by venue and dates and cannot be re-scheduled within one month of the scheduled start date. Fees for in-house courses cannot be transferred to public courses - delegates failing to show for in-house courses cannot transfer to a public course without agreement in writing from us. Such transfer, if possible and where agreed, may incur additional fees.
Cancellation
The closing dates for registration is one calendar month before the course start date. Intending delegates are advised that course places are only confirmed on receipt by Psychometrix of the full fee which should reach us by the closing date unless otherwise agreed. Full refunds will be offered in the case of cancellations up to one month before the closing date, 50% refunds up to two weeks before the closing date, and no refund is due after the closing date. In the case of bookings/payments made after the closing date no refund of fees is due. Where Psychometrix considers there to be a genuine reason for cancellation or non-attendance, a place may be offered on a forthcoming public course if one is available. Course fees cannot be transferred from one course to another without our agreement. In this case, it is the responsibility of the intending delegate to ensure the safety and security of any course materials received for use on a subsequent course - the loss of same will incur an additional fee.
Venues
Our training is delivered in suitable conference/hotel venues in the case of public training courses and for in-house courses in a premises of the commissioning organisation’s choice. It is our policy to only use venues that, to our knowledge, comply with current health/safety and disability legislation.
All training materials provided to delegates are copyright of Psychometrix Limited, are used with the copyright holder's permission, or, in the case of psychometric tests, are copyright of the test publisher. Training materials are for the sole use of the named delegate and, by registering for a course, delegates are bound by a non-disclosure agreement - available on request. In brief, this prohibits delegates from: a) Copying or electronically sharing with others our training materials, including our print and eLearning content; b) Allowing others access to their eLearning account; and c) Using any of our training materials for any purpose other than our provision of training to them.
Completion of Tests for Training and Test Data Usage
As part of our training in ability and personality assessment, delegates may be required to complete one or more psychometric assessments for use in scoring and feedback during the course in order to meet the course requirements. The reports for these assessments are generated by third-party online testing platforms and are passed to you during the course. They are not viewed by us at any stage except with your permission during the course where our help with interpretation may be needed. To monitor the psychometric properties of these instruments, we would like to retain the raw scores anonymously - removing any personal identifiers and tagging the data with a randomly assigned subject number. To enquire further or to opt out, please send us your request by email to:info@psychometrix.ie.
