End-User License Agreement (“Agreement”)

Last updated: 11/32/2021

Cancellation Policy

Cancellation of Course by IAOM:

It is the goal of the IAOM-US to conduct and complete all scheduled courses. However, unforeseen circumstances may arise that could lead to the necessary cancellation of a course.
Additionally, the IAOM-US reserves the right to cancel a course 3 weeks (21 days) prior to the first day of a scheduled course due to insufficient registration.

When possible, IAOM-US will attempt to notify registered participants of a course cancellation no less than 3 weeks (21 days) prior to the first day of the scheduled course. Students will be notified first by email, then by phone, to confirm acknowledgement of notice.

If IAOM-US is prevented or hindered from performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement due to events beyond its control, including without limitation, weather, earthquakes, fires, flood, riots, civil disorder, failure of power or utilities, civil or government calamity, epidemics or pandemics, terrorism, or government acts, it may re-schedule or cancel a course, and shall have no liability in respect of any delay in performance or non-performance of any obligation other than refund of registration fees subject to the conditions in this policy.  For purposes of clarification, this provision shall allow IAOM-US, in its sole discretion, to cancel or suspend any course (or any event associated with the course), at any time in the event that it determines that it cannot move forward with the course due to any public health emergency, any government acts related to a public health emergency, or related lack of interest by participants that would render the course or associated event economically infeasible.

Refunds:

• If IAOM-US cancels a course, registered students may request a refund of the registration fee paid, under the Refund Policy below.
• If IAOM-US reschedules a course, registration fees paid by registered students will be applied to the rescheduled course, or students may request a refund under the Refund Policy below and the notice requirements applicable to student cancellation below.
• If a registered participant cancels his/her registration and written cancellation is received at least 30 days prior to the day of the course, the student may (1) elect to receive a refund of the registration fee paid, less a 15% administrative fee, under the Refund Policy below, or (2) apply the registration fee to another IAOM-US course, less a $40 re-registration fee.
• If a notice of cancellation from a participant is received less than 30 days prior to the day of the course, the student is entitled to a refund of 50% of the registration fee paid, under the Refund Policy below.
• IAOM-US recognizes the need for purchasing airline tickets in advance for some courses. If a student provides a proof of purchase of an airline ticket for an IAOM-US course that has been cancelled by the IAOM-US, the IAOM-US will credit up to $50.00 towards the transfer of a ticket for another IAOM-US course

Refund Policy: 

IAOM-US will issue refunds for cancelled courses within approximately 60 days of a cancellation by IAOM-US or receipt of a registered student’s request for refund.  If a cancellation or request is due to an event outside the control of IAOM-US, as described above, refunds will be issued when circumstances permit, in the sole discretion of IAOM-US.

Amendments:

IAOM-US reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify or replace this Agreement at any time. If a revision is material we will provide at least 30 days notice prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change will be determined at the sole discretion of IAOM-US.
