3. Promotional Discount Restrictions / Team Discounts
 

When multiple people (3 or more) register for the same course (same location, same date) at the same time, with payment being made upon registration, each person will receive a 15% discount on that course, and it is considered a Team Discount. Registrants eligible for a team discount should call one of our training consultants at 800-288-7246 to register, rather than registering online. Also call for information on corporate volume discounts for onsite or public classes.

Team discounts do not apply to our eLearning courses, Project Management Fast Track, the Certificate in Applied Project Management Program (evening and Saturday programs), or the Certificate in Applied Business Analysis (evening or Saturday programs).

Promotional discount restrictions may not be applied to current registrations or new registrations within a 60 day period of a previous cancellation for the same or similar course. Discounts may not be applied to corporate, private onsite contracts.

4. Refer a Friend Discount
  If a person registers for a course and refers one person to register for the same or other management development program courses, each person will receive $200 off of the course that they take. This offer cannot be combined with Team Discounts or any other special offer. Project Management Fast Track, eLearning courses, and 1-day courses are not eligible for this discount. Discounts no longer apply if either registration is cancelled. Persons registering under the Refer a Friend Discount should call one of our training consultants at 800-288-7246 rather than registering online. Also call for information on corporate volume discounts for onsite or public classes.
