Cancellation Policy
Classroom Training enrollments cancelled close to the class start date (late-notice cancellations), those unattended altogether (no-shows), or those who show up late (late arrivals) waste valuable resources that cannot be recovered.
In an effort to reinforce the value of Jaguar Land Rover Training & Development (JLR T&D) classroom training seats, JLR T&D will charge Body Shops for no-shows or for cancelling any enrollment within five (5) days of the class start date in the amount of $1,000.00. Late cancellations and no-shows due to extenuating circumstances, such as a personal emergency or weather travel delays, will be considered on a case by case basis. Proof of the circumstance may be required (doctor’s note or flight cancellation notification).
Late arrivals are also subject to these terms. If a Technician is more than 2 hours late to a 5-day training event, they are too late to catch up with the rest of class. If you show up more than 2 hours late, you will be sent home and will need to reschedule your training for another session. If a Technician is more than 1 day late to a 4-day training event, they are too late to catch up with the rest of class. If you show up more than 1 day late, you will be sent home and will need to reschedule your training for another session. If you are late within the designated timeframe, standard event fees apply. If you are late beyond the designated timeframe, you may also be charged $1,000.00 due to taking up a seat from someone else. Similar to no-shows and late cancellations, late arrivals due to extenuating circumstances, such as a personal emergency or weather travel delays, will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Proof of the circumstance may be required (doctor’s note or flight cancellation notification).
In the event of a no-show due to extenuating circumstances, such as a personal emergency or flight cancellations, JLRNA must be contacted by noon (local time) on the first day of class in order for any consideration to be applied. To cancel your booking or notify us of a late cancellation, please contact JLRNA at JLRCRN@jaguarlandrover.com. You will need to provide your name, booking reference, address and details of the booking.
