Where an applicable statutory exception to withdrawal is relied upon for a time-specific educational service or digital content or services, the conditions required by law must be satisfied.

Failure to attend scheduled sessions, voluntary withdrawal after programme commencement, or incomplete participation does not automatically entitle the participant to a refund.

Where ADN CoE® cancels the programme or fails to provide a material contracted educational service, the participant's rights to an appropriate refund, alternative provision, or other remedy will be determined under the accepted agreement and applicable mandatory law.

Refunds, where legally due or otherwise approved, will be administered through the appropriate authorized payment channel.

12. Transfer of Registration

Programme registration is personal and associated with the individual registered participant.

Registration may not be transferred automatically to another individual, programme, intake, or academic year.

Any proposed transfer must be requested in writing and approved in advance by ADN CoE®.

ADN CoE® may assess the proposed replacement participant's academic eligibility and the availability of places.

Transfers are not guaranteed.

Where approval is granted, the applicable administrative, financial, and educational arrangements will be confirmed in writing.
