Payment overview
Our online learning programmes offer two payment options:
- Pay in full: make a single payment for the entire programme at the time of your first enrolment.
- Pay as you learn: pay per module, meaning you only pay for what you've enrolled in. You must pay fees for each module in full by the end of the enrolment period.
