Conditions
All fees are payable 4 weeks in advance and no admission to the course will
be permitted until payment has been received. Printed course notes are included in the fees for the 5-day statistics courses.
Course literature and software (for the
5-day statistics course) is
copyright protected and may not be reproduced or distributed without
permission. For some courses, participants will be given a personal license for the
software package Brodgar. The
license will be valid for a period of 1 year. The course content might
be modified or improved prior to the course start date. Accommodation (and
lunch and meals) are not included as part of the courses fees and participants
are expected to make their own arrangements. If requested we will provide
information to help. Please note that refunds (after deducting a
15% bank and administration charge) will only be given if a place is cancelled
at least 30 days before the start date of the course. A course participant can
be substituted at any time before the start of the course. We reserve the
right to cancel any course without liability other than a refund of the full
course fee. Unfortunately, we cannot assist with VISA application.
The 5-day courses are designed for biologists and we will only discuss concepts;
no detailed mathematics. As such, these courses are less suitable for
statisticians who wish to learn all the mathematical details.
