Participation Conditions
for Block Courses

§ 1 Scope 

The general terms and conditions apply to all contractual relationships between the Cambridge Institut GmbH and its customers. By signing the registration form/submitting the online registration form, the customer acknowledges the validity of the general business relationships. Contradictory or deviating terms and conditions of the customer are not recognized by the Cambridge Institut GmbH. No oral collateral agreements have been made. Changes or additions to the agreement require written form. The written form requirement cannot be waived. 

§ 2 Conclusion of Contract 

Binding registration for a course can be made in person at the Cambridge Institut office, by mail, online through our website, or via email to info@cambridgeinstitut.de using the corresponding registration form. 

The contract is concluded when a registration is made in person or by mail and confirmed as possible by the Cambridge Institut GmbH. The confirmation is made by providing/sending a corresponding written confirmation. 

For registrations by email or online through our website, the customer initially receives an automatically generated email confirming the receipt of their registration. This confirmation does not constitute a binding contract. The contract is established when Cambridge Institut GmbH subsequently sends the customer a confirmation email regarding the possibility of participation. Registration by email/online through our website is only possible up to 7 days before the course starts. 

§ 3 Course Fee 

1. The course fee is determined by the current fee schedule, which becomes part of the instructional contract.  

2. The course fee must be paid without request by the first day of the course (see confirmation of registration), or a cost coverage statement from the employer must be provided by that time. The course fee is only valid for the booked course period and cannot be transferred to another period. 

3. Payment is made by depositing the amount into the account specified below or directly via the online shop. There is also the option of making a cash/EC card payment at the registration. 

4. The customer cannot demand replacement (make-up) for unused lessons, especially no refund of course fees for lessons not attended. However, the Cambridge Institut GmbH must credit the value of what it saves or obtains through the failure to provide the service or willfully refraining from obtaining it due to other use. 

5. The course fee cannot be transferred to other individuals/participants. 

§  4 Amendment / Non-Execution 

Cambridge Institut GmbH reserves the right to cancel a course, modify the time conditions and content of the course, or offer the participant another course if the minimum number of participants for the booked course is not reached. 

§ 5 Termination and Cancellation 

6.1 Cancellations must be made in writing.  

6.2 In the event of cancellation up to the registration deadline (7 days before the start of the course), no course fees will be charged.  

6.3 In the event of cancellation after the registration deadline but before the start of the course, 20% of the course fee will be charged as administration costs.  

6.4 In the event of cancellation after the start of the course, the full course fee must be paid. 

§ 6 Default 

1. If the course fee is not paid by the due date (see fee schedule) / by the first of the respective course month in advance, the customer is in default of payment after a reminder by Cambridge Institut GmbH unless the reminder is dispensable under § 286 para. 2 BGB. 

2. In this case, Cambridge Institut GmbH reserves the right to prohibit participation in the course until payment is made. 

3. In the event of default, the customer is obliged to reimburse all default damages, reminder fees of €10.00 

Alternative: In the event of default, the customer is obligated to compensate Cambridge Institut GmbH for all default damages, regardless of any other claims. 

§ 7 Applicable Law 

1. The contractual relationship and its implementation are subject exclusively to the law of the Federal Republic of Germany, insofar as this does not deprive the customer of the protection granted to him by those provisions from which, under the law that would apply in the absence of a choice of law in accordance with Sentence 1, deviation by agreement is not permissible. 

2. If the customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, or if the customer does not have a general place of jurisdiction in the Federal Republic of Germany, Munich is agreed as the place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from this contract. Otherwise, the statutory place of jurisdiction applies. 

Should individual provisions of these conditions be or become invalid or void, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.
