IAP2A Training and Events

If you need to postpone your attendance at upcoming booked training courses as a result of the COVID-19 situation, such as: personal illness or isolation; an immediate family member having COVID-19; or in line with your organisational policy, IAP2 Australasia will consider applications to waive cancellation fees. If approved, IAP2 Australasia will provide credit notes to be used for a future training course or event. This will be considered on a case by case basis and in line with official Government agency advice. Please notify us by emailing training@iap2.org.au and include any supporting evidence such as a letter from your employer or a medical certificate.

If your reason for postponing or cancelling your attendance is not COVID-19 related, then our usual IAP2A cancellation policy applies.
