Section 2.1: Terms of Use

 

3a: INE Training Passes and Subscriptions

By starting your INE IT Training Pass membership, you expressly agree that INE is authorized to charge you a membership fee at the current published rate. By subscribing or purchasing a subscription extension you authorize INE to charge your payment method now and again at the beginning of each subsequent renewal period. All subscriptions renew automatically using the payment information you have provided for your account, including periodic credit card updates. When you purchase an INE Training Pass subscription, you acknowledge and agree that INE is authorized to use the payment information provided for the renewal fee and process the fee automatically on your renewal date. 

 

Your subscription to any INE Training Pass will automatically renew at the end of each subscription term unless you cancel your renewal prior to the end of said term. You must cancel your subscription renewal before the scheduled renewal date to avoid auto renewal and the associated renewal fee. To cancel your subscription renewal, login to your account at members.ine.com and select ‘View Profile’, located on the top right of the screen. From your profile, select the ‘Subscription’ tab. On the Subscription tab and underneath the subscription listing click the link embedded in ‘Please click here to manage your subscriptions’.

To cancel your subscription renewal via email, contact billing@ine.com with at least 48 business hours advance notice before your automatic renewal date. 

 

INE Training Passes Payment, Pricing, & Refund Terms

All INE Training Passes subscription fees must be paid via credit card only. Acceptance of any alternate forms of payment for any INE Training Passes are at the sole discretion of INE. Discounts and other promotional offers may only be valid for initial term. Special terms may apply to discounted or promotional INE Training Pass purchases. See specific offer for further details. INE may increase subscription fees for a subsequent subscription period at any time and for any reason, provided that INE provides notice at least thirty (30) calendar days prior to the expiration of the subscription. INE may terminate the subscription and these terms if unable to renew the subscription due to any issue with credit card processing, including but not limited to inaccurate or outdated credit card information. 

 

All INE Training Passes subscription fees are final and non-refundable. The INE Training Passes are a subscription service which will renew at the end of each term automatically. Subscription renewal fees for one-year (yearly) plans are eligible for refund up to seven (7) days after your INE Training Pass renews, providing your account has not been in use since the renewal date. Requests for refund must be received via email to billing@ine.com. Subscription renewal fees for one-month (monthly) INE Training Pass subscriptions are non-refundable under any circumstances. Consideration beyond the stated terms for refunding all or part of your INE Training Pass Subscription renewal fee is at the sole discretion of INE.

Electronic accounts suspected of being used by any party other than the purchaser or single intended recipient are subject to recoation without prior notice at the complete and sole discretion of INE. Accounts suspended in this manner will not be eligible for refund nor store credit for any uses or unused portion of the subscription or materials therein.

Section 4: Terms of Service

 

 4a: Instructor Led Bootcamps

 

Bootcamp Refunds 

The following policy applies to refunds for instructor-led bootcamp vouchers, instructor-led bootcamps that have already passed, or instructor-led bootcamp classes that have been rescheduled, per your request, from the original date listed on your purchase. Refunds for instructor-led bootcamp vouchers, instructor-led bootcamp classes that were attended, or instructor-led bootcamps that have a date on the order that has already passed are not permitted for any reason. If you no longer wish to attend an instructor-led bootcamp, you must notify INE in writing at least 45 days before the course start date for which you are currently registered. You are then eligible to receive a store credit which you may apply to another purchase. The store credit extended to you will be valued at the cost of your purchase minus any promotional items or self-paced training materials that were included with your bootcamp purchase. Store credit is valid for 365 days from the date of issue. 

 

The following policy applies to refunds for instructor-led bootcamps purchased for a specific date. If requested in writing at least 46 days before the bootcamp start date, instructor-led bootcamps purchased for a specific date are eligible for a full refund, minus the value of self-paced materials and any promotional items that were included with your order. 

 

Any refund request received within 45 days of your scheduled instructor-led bootcamp purchased for a specific date will incur additional cancellation fees. Cancellation fees will be based on a percentage of the price you paid for your bootcamp. Any self-paced materials that came with your order cannot be refunded. The value of these materials and any promotional items will be removed from your refunded amount, in addition to the appropriate cancellation fee. In the event that the purchaser and attendee are not the same person, refunds will be processed to the purchaser. Requests for refunds on bootcamps with a specific class date are subject to a cancellation penalty as follows:

 









 

 

Bootcamp Rescheduling

If for any reason, you need to reschedule a bootcamp, or if you would like to choose a different date after purchase, you must notify INE in writing at least 46 days before the bootcamp start date. At INE's sole discretion, you may incur a rescheduling fee if your request is placed less than 45 days before the scheduled bootcamp start date. Rescheduling fees are based on current bootcamp list price and must be paid before you may attend.






 

Failure to attend your scheduled bootcamp without prior written notification will be considered a “no show” and the full bootcamp price will be forfeited.

INE reserves the right to cancel or reschedule any bootcamp. INE shall not be liable for lost travel expenses or any other expense incurred by the student related to a rescheduled bootcamp. INE assumes no liability in the case of war (declared or undeclared), natural or man-made disasters, delays or inability to travel, or other forces outside of INE's control through which INE determines attending a bootcamp may cause risk to students or INE employees. 

Bootcamp confirmation will be provided 30 days before the start date. Bootcamps for which the running dates are changed 31 days or more before the originally-scheduled start date are considered “rescheduled,” not “canceled.” In the unlikely event that INE must cancel a Bootcamp within 30 days of the scheduled start date, you will be notified immediately and we will work with you to determine the appropriate solution.

 

Bootcamp Payment Policies

Before one can reserve a seat in an upcoming on-site bootcamp, a valid INE order must be placed. A valid order consists of an order paid in full using an approved payment method, for which the initial payment has been made on a payment plan, or with receipt of an approved purchase order.

Any electronic materials included with the bootcamp purchase will be fulfilled to your account upon payment completion, the first payment of a payment plan, or receipt of a valid purchase order.

Bootcamp orders must be paid in full before the student may attend class.

Bootcamp must be paid in full before any applicable promotional materials can be ordered or delivered.

Bootcamp rescheduling fee will apply regardless of the payment method selected. Please refer to the rescheduling policy for further details.

If a visa invitation letter from INE is required to attend your scheduled on-site bootcamp, please plan your payment accordingly. Bootcamp orders must be paid in full before we are able to issue visa invitation letters to students.

 

Bootcamp Re-Seat Policy

The reseat/retake terms in place at the time of purchase will apply to your case. Re-seats are available for bootcamps of the same type, or for bootcamps that have replaced the course you originally attended. You must attend your initial bootcamp before you can register for a re-seat. You may only register for one reseat at a time and must attend the reseat session before scheduling another re-seat. Students may schedule a re-seat for any upcoming bootcamp date, excluding those marked “Sold Out”. Any outstanding fees, including rescheduling fees, must be paid before you can register for a re-seat. You must agree to the reseat terms before you may register.

Effective November 1, 2017, bootcamp students may purchase re-seats at a reduced rate for two years from the date that you attended your original class. At the close of the two-year timeframe, bootcamp students have the option to purchase two more years of discounted re-seats. Re-seat fees are applicable for all tracks. Re-seat fees for bootcamps 6 days or longer are $1000 per re-take. For bootcamps of 5 days or less, the cost is $500 each time you wish to re-sit. In addition to the reseat fee, if you received a discount on your original purchase, you must pay the difference between list price at the time of purchase and the discounted rate received. If any promotional items (i.e. free travel vouchers, electronic devices, etc.) were included with your bootcamp purchase, you will be required to pay the cost of that item (up to $500) in addition to the reseat fee. Requests for reseats after your two-year timeframe will be evaluated on a case by case basis.

Reseat policy is subject to change at any time at the discretion of INE.

Price Changes and Refunds

All purchases, including pre-orders, are final and nonrefundable. Product pricing is subject to change without notice. If there is a price drop within 48 hours of your original purchase, you may request a store credit for the price difference, provided your purchase was made at full price. This offer does not apply to any special deals, promotions or discounts you may have already received. This store credit is nontransferable and expires 365 days from the date of the original purchase.

 

Store Credit and Gift Cards

Store credits and gift cards are utilized interchangeably and may be issued in a variety of cases including but not limited to bootcamp cancellation, price change credit or promotional offers. Store credit / gift cards are valid for 365 days from the issue date unless otherwise stated. After 365 days from issue date, any unused credit will be forfeited and cannot be reinstated. Store credits may not be transferred nor converted into a cash refund under any circumstance. Store credits cannot be used towards a purchase that includes promotional materials, physical devices or INE gift card/s. These terms are subject to change at any time at the discretion of INE.


INE Gift Cards are issued as 16-digit redemption codes and can be redeemed for any of INE’s training products. You can utilize your INE Gift Card towards the purchase of Rack Rental Tokens, Workbooks, or a Team Training Subscription via INE’s online store by entering your Gift Card Code at checkout.

The terms and conditions of any promotional offer are set out in the promotional material for such offer, which may vary from our standard terms and conditions, but remain subject to our End User License Agreement. INE reserves the right to discontinue promotions at any time.
