The National Training Centre have been delivering respected educational programmes since 1985 and during that time we have had many questions asked by potential students before registration. Here you can find the answers to the questions we receive most often.

Who is eligible to participate?

This course is open to all individuals with a keen interest in fascia and human anatomy.

What is the refund policy for the course?

Due to the nature of dissection courses whereby many items, including cadavers, must be booked and paid for at least six months ahead of the scheduled course date, the refund policy is as follows:.

Where written notice of non-participation is received, fees will be refunded on the following scale:

Twelve weeks or more before the course start date – 80% refund
Less than twelve weeks before the course start date – 0% refund

Refunds cannot be considered in any circumstances less than twelve weeks before the course start date. If you must drop out of a course due to illness (or other reason), remaining course fees must be paid in full. If students face any unforeseen circumstances which have a negative impact on their ability to pay fees due, they should contact the NTC office of administration as soon as possible.

In some instances refunds will have the the payment processing company’s transaction fee deducted from any amount due. This occurs when the payment processor will not refund the transaction fee to NTC. In instances where the payment processor do refund the transaction fee to NTC this will also be refunded.

Course registrations completed online within the EU are subject to the Consumer Rights Directive and you have the right to cancel your booking for any reason within 14 days. If a cancellation notice is received within the required time period, the National Training Centre are obliged to refund your payment in full within 14 days of receiving such notice of cancellation.

When can I book travel and accommodation?

You should not book any non-refundable travel or accommodation until the NTC office of administration has confirmed the course. This will be done once the minimum required number of registrations has been received. Dissection courses are generally oversubscribed and confirmation of the course is generally issued many months in advance.

Where does the course take place?

This course is delivered over 5 full days at the Department of Biomedical Education & Anatomy, College of Medicine, The Ohio State University, USA.
