Before enrolling

How do I reserve my place, and what does the price include?

The reservation fee is part of the training price and is deducted from it. We will confirm your enrollment in writing, subject to availability, under the agreed terms. The price includes applicable taxes and will not be changed unilaterally. The regular payment schedule incurs no surcharge; bank charges resulting from student-initiated refunds will only include the actual, verifiable bank fees incurred. For programs lasting more than one year, the displayed price corresponds to one year.

Can I cancel my enrollment if I change my mind?

If you enroll remotely, online, or by phone, you have 14 calendar days from enrollment to exercise your right of withdrawal without stating a reason or incurring a penalty. You can notify us at escuela@microfusa.com. The refund includes all amounts paid, including the reservation fee; if you have expressly requested to start during that period, the portion of the service actually provided will be deducted. The specifics of access to digital content are detailed in Clause 9 of the General Terms and Conditions.

What happens if I need to withdraw later?

You can request withdrawal in writing. The financial implications depend on the effective withdrawal date and the payment option: deductions may apply for the reservation fee, administrative costs, services already provided, and a cancellation fee, as applicable. Clause 10 details the applicable amounts and timeframes. If there is a documented serious circumstance preventing you from continuing, we will consider the alternatives provided in the terms, such as a deferral or a change of intake.

What happens if Microfusa cancels the course or makes a substantial change?

If we cancel the intake before it begins, you can choose between an equivalent alternative or a full refund of the amounts paid. If the course has already started, we will offer an equivalent solution or a refund for the portion not taught. In the event of a substantial change to the agreed terms, you may also terminate the contract and receive a refund for the services not provided.

Please read the General Terms and Conditions of Contract and Enrollment, which form part of your contract along with the specific terms of the course.
