Terms & Conditions

By registering, all individuals who wish to attend classes/ seminars/ shows/ events held by the Improv School “Heraklion Improv Theater”, automatically accept and agree to the following terms:

Tuition Fees

Tuition fees for attending any seminar or class provided by Heraklion Improv Theater shall be paid according to the description of each seminar or class and specifically before the start of the class. If the fees are not  paid on time, the School will not allow the individual  to attend the classes/ seminars unless there is a prior agreement between the individual and the School.

Tuition Fee Policy

The School will only provide a refund of the tuition fees if an individual requests so within 10 days from the starting day of a multi-week class/seminar. If a refund is issued, it implies the immediate interruption of that individual’s participation to that class/ seminar.

Fees that have been paid by an individual for registration in a special, not regular workshop or seminar, will not be returned.

  • If for any reason, a seminar is to be canceled, the fees will not be returned as long as the School provides a new date and time to replace the cancellation.
  • If the student has paid part or all of the fees, but fail to attend the classes for whatever reason (partly or in full), there is no possibility of a refund for the amount they have already paid. Moreover, there is no possibility to counterbalance the amount paid to a seminar or workshop that the individual might want to register in the future.
  • If a student is not able to attend a workshop, for whatever reason, that they have already registered for, they are obliged to pay in full the tuition fees of that workshop.

Postponing – Canceling seminars

The School reserves the right to cancel or postpone any seminar or class, for any reason, if it deems impossible to make it happen. In that case, the School will schedule a new date and time to replace it, as the School sees fit.

Class replacement

If a class or a seminar is cancelled due to the School’s or an instructor’s fault, then a replacement time and date will be announced as soon as possible.

  • In case a student is not able to attend to a class or seminar that they have registered, the School is not responsible to provide a replacement class. Nonetheless, the School may provide that possibility if and when the situation permits and at the School’s discretion.

Absences

In case of an absence or severe delay, students are obliged to inform the School.

For every 6 – 8 week class, each student is allowed to be absent for 2 classes without that impacting the learning process. In case a student is absent for 3 or more classes, they can continue attending the rest of the class, but they will not be able to advance to the next level unless they re-take the same level once more.

  • Being late for class by more than fourty five (45) minutes counts as being absent in that class.
