Youth Public T+Cs

Youth Public Terms & Conditions

The Learning Place aims to provide a streamlined process for all registered learners. For all course requirements and expectations, please review our Learner Handbook, which outlines our responsibilities and the learners' responsibilities before, during, and after a course.

Eligibility:

To be eligible for our Youth Public Short Courses advertised through our website, you must:

  • Be aged 16 – 19 unless prior approval has been granted by us.

  • Meet the year-level requirements as set out in the annual prospectus unless we have granted prior approval. For all courses that include level three credits, learners must be Y12 or Y13.

  • Meet any prerequisite requirements for the course/standard.

  • Have competent literacy and/or English and/or numeracy and/or digital skills to complete the standards offered.

  • Not be an international learner. We do not currently enrol international learners as we are not signatory to the Education (Pastoral Care of International Learners) Code of Practice 2016.

  • Have not already completed any of the standards offered on the course. If you have completed some of the unit standards offered on the course, you will not need to complete them again. However, we will review their record of learning to confirm. We will only accept credits as achieved If they show on their current record of achievement.

We must be informed of any significant behavioural needs, learning needs and/or Special Assessment Conditions and medical conditions prior to course commencement. When deemed appropriate by our Academic Manager, we will complete an 'Individual Learning Plan' with you, to ensure that your needs can be sufficiently met on the course. If needs cannot be met sufficiently prior to a course will be refunded the course fee. Failure to inform us of specific needs may impact your experience on the course.

All enrolments will be reviewed to ensure that you meet the eligibility criteria.

Payment, Withdrawals & Refunds:

Payment is made through our payment portal upon registration. If you wish to withdraw, please contact our bookings manager (bookings@thelearningplace.co.nz).

Refunds of up to 50% of the course fee will be granted if cancellation is received at least 7 days before a course.
