Upon receipt of such cancellation request more than 30 days prior to the Course start date, you will be given either the option to receive a refund or to transfer your enrollment to a future Course of equal or lesser cost, subject to availability. If you make a cancellation request within 30 days of the Course start date, you may be provided a one-time option to transfer your enrollment to a future Course of equal or lesser cost, subject to availability.

If a Course is permanently canceled, Crosstalk Solutions will refund you any fees paid for a Course.
