Courses Offered at Rigpa Adelaide

If we cancel your course before it has started, you will get a full refund or credit to use towards another similar course. If we cancel your course after it has started, you will get a refund or credit to use towards another similar course for the remaining period.

If you cannot attend a course, a full refund will be given upon request when cancellation is notified at least 24 hours prior to the starting date of the course.

If you want to defer a course, we will be happy to credit your enrollment to another course of the same (or similar) content. Course deferral/credits are valid for up to 12 months from the date of the initial course. Please note that there is no refund for same-day cancellations.

In the first instance please email us at adelaide@rigpa.org.au to advise of any issue with your course enrollment.

Events (including talks and retreats)

If you cannot attend an event, a full refund will be given upon request when cancellation is notified at least 24 hours prior to the starting date of the event.

If you need to withdraw from an event that you are already attending and the event is offered over a period longer than one day, we will refund you the balance of the days that have not yet concluded. We will calculate the amount of your refund on a pro-rata basis for the number of days that have not yet concluded divided by the total number of days the event runs for.

To cancel your registration or to notify us of an error in the amount we have charged you please email us at adelaide@rigpa.org.au.
