2. Offering Services
- All payment details that are downloadable or designed for online use and are typically made available to the beneficiary immediately after a successful transaction. While the delivery process is set up for instant transmission of the services, like attending online or onsite classes offered by CPPR, CPPR will not refund the course fee because of a delay by the beneficiary in accessing these due to reasons at the beneficiaries end or at the internet service provider. CPPR shall not be responsible for any delays in transmission due to web service outages or email delivery delays which are beyond CPPR’s control or at the beneficiary’s end. If the course offered involves a live training, it will be arranged as per pre-planned date, time and online platform. It will be informed to the beneficiary in advance. Centre for Public Policy Research has the right to change the date, time and venue (online platform) of the live training and inform the beneficiary.
- The services offered by the Centre for Public Policy Research are very simple to use. Thus, all services are offered with the joint understanding that the beneficiary possesses a basic knowledge of computer systems, and other software and online platforms required for the successful completion of the course. No reimbursement will be done due to the inability of the user to understand software and online platforms required for the successful completion of the course. However, the Centre for Public Policy Research will attempt to resolve any problems as quickly and easily as possible.
- If you are unsure of the content of any services or courses offered, please contact us before making the payment. We are happy to help you verify that you are availing the right services /choosing the right course, which will meet your needs.
