Policies & Terms

Policy for Withdrawals and Refunds

If a student chooses to withdraw from a registered course at least 10 business days prior to the first session, they will receive a full refund of any amounts already paid, excluding a $250 non-refundable registration fee. In order to cancel and receive a refund, registered students must notify Maslow Centre for Executive Leadership in writing and at least 10 business days before the first session begins.

Written notice, by email, of cancellation shall be effective on the date it is received by Maslow Centre for Executive Leadership. Refunds, less the non-refundable registration fee, will be processed within 5 business days following the receipt of written notice. Depending on your provider, refunds can take up to 30 days to be reflected on your credit card statement.

If a student, or their organizational representative, does not notify us of intention to withdraw at least 10 business days in advance of the first session, they will forfeit the full course fee.

Cancellation requests can be forwarded to: info@maslowleadership.com

Oral cancellations in person or by phone, choosing to not attend without notification, or contacting an instructor or coach directly will not be considered as acceptable ways to obtain a refund and withdraw from the course.

In rare cases, Maslow Centre for Executive Leadership may need to cancel or reschedule courses. Cancellations and rescheduling initiated by our organization will result in a full refund to enrolled students if another suitable course or program schedule is not available.

Maslow Centre for Executive Leadership currently only accepts payment from organizational representatives and/or professionals invoicing their respective organizations (private, public, non-profit organizations or sole proprietorships).

This policy is effective for open classes only and not for corporate cohorts. Terms and conditions around withdrawals and refunds for private corporate cohorts are outlined in their contract.

Policy on Payment of tuition and fees

All tuition and fees related to enrollment in any of our programs are due at least 30 days before the first session. Payment can be made via credit card, corporate cheque or direct transfer. Organizations are welcome to pay in 1, 3 or 6 separate transactions between acceptance/registration and 30 days prior to the start of the first session. Individual participants paying upfront with their personal funds and receiving reimbursement from their organizations can do so under the same terms described in this policy. In such cases, the participant’s organization will still receive an invoice from Maslow Centre for Executive Leadership.

Once a participant is accepted into a course and completes their official registration details through our Enrollment Office, the participant’s eligibility to attend the course is subject to receipt of payment for all fees and tuition. A one-time $250 registration fee is required for any new participants to Maslow Programs.

The participant’s/authorized organizational representative’s signature on the enrollment form authorizes Maslow Centre for Executive Leadership to automatically invoice and/or charge the authorized credit card for the outstanding balance 30 days prior to the course start date. We will notify the authorized individual if a charge to the credit card is not approved or payment via another method is not received by the due date. A response and payment are required within 5 business days of our notification; if not, the student’s space in the course will be released and you will be notified of your withdrawal.

This policy is effective for open classes only and not for corporate cohorts. Terms and conditions around payment of tuition and fees for private corporate cohorts are outlined in their contract.

Aggregate Information

We collect certain aggregate information, such as tracking the Internet address of the domains from which you visit our site and analyzing this data for trends and statistics, tracking your IP address (the number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you are using the Web), and tracking your browser type. We use this aggregate information to help diagnose problems with our servers, to administer our website, and to gather broad demographic information. None of this information is connected with your personal information. We may also generate non-identifying and aggregate profiles from personal information provided during registration (such as the total number, but not the names, of clients).

Use of IP Addresses

An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you’re surfing the Internet. Web servers automatically identify your computer by its IP address. We may collect IP addresses for the purposes of system administration, to report aggregated information to our advertisers, and to audit the use of our website. When clients request pages from our website, our servers log the requesting clients’ IP addresses. We normally will not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, which means that clients’ sessions will be logged, but client identity remains anonymous to us. We can and will use IP addresses to identify a client when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our rules or terms of service or to protect our service, website, or any person, or where it is otherwise authorized or required by law.

a person who in our reasonable judgment is seeking the information as an agent of the individual
a company or individual engaged by us to perform functions on its behalf, such as research or data processing
a credit reporting agency
a public authority or agent of a public authority, if in our reasonable judgment, it appears that there is imminent danger to life or property which could be avoided or minimized by disclosure of the information
where you consent to such disclosure or it is required or authorized by law

We may use and disclose employee personal information for a variety of purposes related to commencing, managing or terminating the employment relationship. We do not sell, rent, loan, trade, or lease any personal information collected at our site, including contact forms, download requests or email lists. We will retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes stated above, as required for legal or business purposes or as required by law. Subsequently, we will destroy, erase, or make anonymous such information. However, we will retain for at least one-year personal information that has been used to make a decision about a client, customer or employee.

Accuracy of Personal Information

We will make reasonable efforts to ensure that personal information in our control is accurate and complete. You may request corrections to your personal information. If your request for a correction is rejected by us, we will make a notation of such request and rejection on your file or personal information.

Safeguarding Personal Information

We will protect personal information in your control against risks of loss, theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, modification or destruction by security safeguards that are appropriate to the sensitivity and format of the information.

Upon reasonable written notice from you, we will, within 30 days or such longer period in the event we obtain an extension, provide access to all your personal information in our possession and tell your what the information is being used for and to whom it has been disclosed. We reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee for providing access to personal information. If we refuse your request for access, we will notify you in writing, documenting the reasons for refusal, the relevant provision of the Act on which we rely and resources for redress available to you, including from the British Columbia Information and Privacy Commissioner.
