Contact us for group discounts.

The registration fee is valid for one person and is nonrefundable. However, we will allow a registrant the one-time option to transfer their registration to another available session within one calendar year, so long as written (email) notice is provided to the CQ Center at least 10 days prior to the course start date. If a registrant provides fewer than 10 days’ notice of a transfer request, an administrative fee of $250 / £200 / €230 will be applied. 

It is the responsibility of the registrant to inform the CQ Center of any changes to personal information, especially name, shipping address or email address.

If a registrant fails to attend a course and no notice is provided before the course starts, that individual will be considered a “no-show” and will not be eligible for a refund or to transfer their registration.

We reserve the right to cancel a Certification session 20 days out, in which case full refunds will be provided.

Full attendance to the program is required to receive your certification. Participants who miss more than 30 minutes of a program will need to attend the missed portions at a future program to be considered certified and receive their materials and credentials.
