Policies of the Centre for Veterinary Education

Distance Education

Individuals who wish to register for Distance Education are required to pay a $1000 non-refundable deposit to secure their place in the program.

An early bird discount applies to all those who register and fully pay for a Distance Education Program by 30 June (Option 1) or 31 October (Option 2).

Full payment for the Distance Education Program must be made by 1 December.

The closing date for registration of a Distance Education Program is 1 December.

Please note that the Centre for Veterinary Education has a strict cancellation policy. In the event of a cancellation received less than six weeks (42 days) prior to the course starting, a no-show situation or cancellation during the course, no refunds will be offered. The CVE reserves the right to retain 50% of the payment received if the cancellation has been made at six weeks (42 days). Cancellations made more than six weeks before the course date will receive a full refund minus the $1000 administration fee. Enrolment fees will be fully reimbursed if a course is cancelled by the CVE. No further claim can be raised thereafter.

The CVE does not accept deferral of courses. You must complete your course in the year of commencement.

The Centre for Veterinary Education reserves the right to cancel a course due to insufficient registrations. The CVE will fully refund all fees paid to those who have registered for a cancelled course.

If a participant wishes to have their modules sent to them by courier, they will have to pay for this method of delivery. The Centre for Veterinary Education will only cover normal post and airmail of course documents.
