Course selection by a participant or a training manager/coordinator should only happen after ensuring that the course syllabus matches with the training requirements and that the participant satisfies the set pre-requisites (where applicable). The institute holds the right to reject / cancel the registration of a participant that does not meet the pre-requisites after notifying the participant/organisation of the same.
All complete registration requests are to be sent to the following email address:
This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
A registration confirmation letter will be sent to all approved enrolments based on seat availability. As the time of the selected course comes near, reminders will be sent to ensure that the participant is aware that the date of the selected course is approaching.
Non-member institutions will receive a notification verifying the receipt of the registration request accompanied with a quotation. A confirmation of registration will be sent once all amounts due are paid, which is vital to be settled prior to the commencement of the selected course. As the time of the selected course comes near, reminders will be sent to ensure that the participant is aware that the date of their course is approaching.
Prior to course commencement, two reminders will be sent to ensure that the participant is aware of the course start date. The first reminder will be sent one month prior to the start date of the course and the second reminder will be sent one week prior to the start date of the course.
Methods of payment: Course fees can be paid by the following methods:
- Cash
- Cheque payable to BIBF
- Credit Card
- Bank Transfer
The institute offers courses on the basis that there will be sufficient participants to justify running the course or else the course will be cancelled. In other instances, where unexpected and unavoidable circumstances arise, the institute will be obliged to modify the dates of the course. This will be communicated to the participant two weeks prior to the start date of the course to minimise any inconvenience that may be caused. The institute’s liability in the event of any modification or cancellation will be limited to cover the full paid course fees.
In the case of cancellation by a participant, the Institute requires a written notice of cancellation not less than two weeks prior to the commencement of the course. For fees bearing courses, the Institute requires a written notice of cancellation attached with the original receipt to be submitted not less than two weeks prior to the commencement of the course to enable the institute to refund the full paid fees. Otherwise, course fees already paid or invoiced may not be refunded and invoices will be due and payable. The institute will permit the nomination of substitute participants.
On the first day of a course, any participant attending later than 30 minutes from the stated start time will be marked as a “No Show” and a notification will be sent to the relevant training manager/coordinator informing them. In the case of a highly demanded course, the participant’s seat will be offered to individuals on the waiting list if no prior arrangements and notifications are provided informing us of their late arrival. Further, attendance of each participant is monitored throughout the duration of the course and any deviations will be communicated immediately.
Participants should attend the full duration of the course as scheduled and strictly abide with the stated course timings. In the event of a participant attending less than 80% of the total course hours, the participant will be withdrawn from the course, marked as a “Drop Out” , requested to re-register and a notification will be sent to training manager/coordinator informing them. For fee bearing courses, the total fees will be charged irrespective of the number of sessions attended.
Participants that meet all course requirements including the minimum 80% attendance policy (where applicable) will be permitted to attend the prescribed course examination. Programme/course rules are available on our website and with relevant centres and information desk staff.
Examination results are disseminated by the Registrar and are due as per course /programme rules. Results will be emailed to training managers / coordinators.
Certificates of completion will be awarded to candidates who have completed all programme requirements. For examinable courses, the institute will only issue a completion certificate for participants that have successfully passed the prescribed examination. The institute will not issue attendance certificates for courses that are categorised as examinable.
All certificates will be mailed to the relevant training manager/coordinator.
