Course Fees (per person)
Our charge rates are based on ability to pay, self-determined, relative to your household income. We want to be properly rewarded for our years of work and experience, but we also want what we have to share to be accessible.
We do expect people to play fair and to be considerate. We are able to offer courses at the lower rate for those who are unable to pay more because those who can afford to pay choose to pay the full amount. So please, if you are in the fortunate position that you can choose not to work, due to large savings or investments perhaps, then please pay the full course fees and not the rate quoted for those who are unwaged or on low income.
