Specific details of the prerequisites pertaining to these training courses are contained in individual course documentation and are made available prior to enrolment. All course information is located on our website.
In the case that a potential student does not meet the prerequisite conditions, we will endeavour to assist you in understanding your options regarding meeting the
standards. Any questions regarding prerequisites can be addressed by telephoning our Contact Centre team on 1300 559 064.
Upon successful enrolment, students will be provided with login details to access their individual Training Desk Portal. Training Desk will provide the student with access to their training records (previous courses completed, Statement of Attainment) which can be downloaded at any time.
Course Delivery
All first aid courses are delivered by way of a third party arrangement with Allens Training Pty Ltd. As the Third-Party organisation, Accidental Health and Safety has an agreement in place which is registered with ASQA and is authorised to deliver training on behalf of Allens Training Pty Ltd.
The course fee may be paid direct to the trainer, with no further enrolment fees required to be paid to Allens Training Pty Ltd in this case.
Course Fees
Each qualification, unit of competency or course offered by Accidental Health and Safety has a specific course fee. The course fee is the maximum fee that may be charged to the student for their selected course.
Course fees are set at competitive rates and will be advised prior to the enrolment in a course. These fees may vary from course to course. Fees and charges are available on request by telephoning Accidental Health and Safety on 1300 115 193 or by viewing specific courses on out website, accidentalddi.com.au
All fees will be paid according to the fee structure provided prior to enrolment.
It is our policy that the course fee will be all-inclusive. Students will not be ‘surprised’ by unexpected requirements, fees or expenses.
Course fee inclusions:
- All tuition;
- Support and coaching;
- Any associated student workbooks, handouts or manuals;
- Classrooms and facilities;
- Access to any specialised equipment necessary in the training.
Where additional resources normally associated with a program of study are required (e.g. reference material, research documents, own computer) the student will be clearly advised of exactly what is required in the pre-course materials or enrolment confirmation for the program.
There are no additional fees associated with your training, except for cancellation fees or replacement of resources.
Students who require replacement of issued learner’s resources or workbooks will be liable for additional charges to cover the cost of replacement.
Payments
Course fees are due and payable at the time of enrolment unless otherwise negotiated. No Statement of Attainment or Qualification will be issued until full and final payment has been received.
Refund Policy and Cancellation
When an applicant accepts a place offered by Accidental Health and Safety and pays the fees, it means a binding contract is created between the student and Health and Safety Notification of cancellation/withdrawal from unit/s of competency, withdrawal or deferral from a course of study must be made in writing to Health and Safety
In the case of cancellation/withdrawal, the following cancellation fees will apply:
- Students who give notice to cancel their enrolment more than 10 days prior to the commencement of a program will be entitled to a full refund of fees paid.
- Students who give notice to cancel their enrolment fees less than 10 days prior to the commencement of a program will be entitled to a 75% refund of fees paid. The amount retained (25%) by Accidental Health and Safety is required to cover the cost of staff and resources which will have already been committed based on the student’s initial intention to undertake the training. Enrolments into short courses (one day) can also be transferred to an alternative date in cases where there is one available.
- Students who cancel their enrolment after a training program has commenced will not be entitled to a refund of fees. Enrolment into a course via distance delivery will be deemed to have commenced when the learner resources have been dispatched.
There is no charge for a student to transfer to another course with Accidental Health and Safety. If Accidental Health and Safety cancels a course, then a full refund will be made available to whoever paid that course fee.
Please note that administration fees may still apply for the processing of refunds.
Discretion may be exercised by the CEO in all situations, if the student can demonstrate that extenuating or significant personal circumstance led to their withdrawal. In these cases, the student should be offered a full credit toward the tuition fee in another scheduled program in-lieu of a refund. CEO may also authorise a refund of tuition fees if the circumstances require it.
Where refunds are approved, the refund payment must be paid to the student within 14 days from the time the student gave written notice to cancel their enrolment. Tuition refunds are to be paid via electronic funds transfer using the authorised bank account nominated by the student on the Refund Request Form which can be downloaded from our website under the student section.
Note: If for any reason Allen’s Training is unable to fulfil its service agreement with a student, Allen’s Training must refund the student’s proportion of fees paid for services not delivered or make alternative arrangements.

Accidental Health and Safetyreserves the right to change course fees, dates, content, trainers or method of presentation at its discretion.
