Training vouchers

New SfEP associates are entitled to two training vouchers – worth £20 each – from the Dorothy Mitchell Smith Memorial Fund to help defray the costs of one SfEP course in each of their first two years in the Society. If you wish to use a voucher when booking a course, please directly.

Lunch and refreshments

The fee for each course covers not only training and course materials, but also a light lunch (all-day courses only) and refreshments during the day.

Transfer fee

If, less than a calendar month before it's held, you find that you can't make the course you've booked, you may be able to transfer your booking for that course to another date or location. However, a £50 transfer fee will be charged if the transfer is requested within two weeks of the course date and the Society is unable to refill your original place.
