All our courses have fixed periods
When you buy a course from us, it’s for a fixed period of time. The course start and end dates are clearly specified in the email you receive when you gain access to the course. The course thus has a start date and an end date. You cannot use the course after the end date. If you want, you can get access for longer by purchasing more months. If you do not use the course during the course period, it cannot be reopened for you later, as the course period will have ended. Then you have to buy a new course to gain access again. We can not pause the course if you are ill or going on holiday. This means that the course period cannot be stopped once it has started.
