8. Course Delivery, Academic Standards, and Progression

8.1 Educational Nature and No Guarantee

SkyLearner provides education and training services. We do not guarantee:

• passing any examination,
• obtaining any licence or rating,
• regulatory acceptance outside the UK,
• any particular timeline, or
• any employment or career outcome.

8.2 Academic Standards and Professional Judgement

We reserve the right to set and apply reasonable academic and behavioural standards appropriate to aviation training, including prerequisites, progress requirements, and integrity expectations.

Where we consider that a student is not progressing adequately, not engaging, or not meeting standards, we may (acting reasonably):

• require additional study,
• require remedial instruction,
• require additional Instructor Tuition (charged separately),
• restrict progression or features,
• pause participation, or
• terminate training access (see Termination).

Payment does not create an entitlement to completion, certification, progression, or examination readiness.

---

9. Examinations and Regulatory Matters

• Some Courses relate to UK CAA syllabi/exams; others do not.
• Examinations are administered subject to UK CAA/exam centre rules and availability.
• You are responsible for meeting regulatory eligibility requirements, deadlines, and any required documentation.
• Regulations and syllabi may change. We may update Course content to reflect changes, but we are not liable for changes imposed by regulators or third parties.

CAA PPL Exams (where offered) are provided under the applicable exam booking terms and any external exam rules.

• Prices are shown at the point of purchase and may change at any time for future purchases.

12. Changes to Courses, Schedules, and Delivery

We may update content, features, instructors, delivery format, and schedules to:

• improve training quality,
• reflect regulatory changes,
• manage safety/operational needs,
• address technical requirements.

---

13. Refunds, Cancellations, Cooling-Off, and Fees

13.1 Statutory Rights

Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights under UK consumer law.

13.2 General Refund Principle (Maximum Protection; Fair & Lawful)

Except where required by law, refunds are offered only for the portion of services not yet provided and only to the extent that SkyLearner has not incurred expenses and costs in relation to your enrolment, access, booking, or services.

We reserve the right to deduct a reasonable fee from any refund to cover costs we have already incurred. This fee will be determined by SkyLearner acting reasonably, taking account of administration, platform provisioning, licensing, instructor time, scheduling, resource allocation, and any third-party fees.

Costs may include (without limitation):

• account and course setup,

• residential course preparation and facilities,
• third-party payment processor or service fees,
• exam-related administration (where applicable).

Costs may be incurred immediately upon enrolment, booking, or granting access.

13.4 Digital Content and Online Courses (Access Starts = Reduced/No Refund)

Where you have been granted access to digital course content, we may determine that no refundable amount remains, even if the full access period has not elapsed, except where required by law.

At checkout, where applicable, you may be asked to request immediate access to digital content and acknowledge that this may affect cancellation rights.

13.5 Subscriptions

• Subscription charges are non-refundable once a billing period has started (except where required by law).
• Cancelling a subscription stops future billing; access continues until the end of the paid period.

• facilities,
• instructor allocation,
• course preparation,

Non-attendance or partial attendance does not entitle you to a refund.

• Cancellations must be made at least 48 hours before the session.
• Late cancellations/non-attendance may be charged in full.
• Delivered sessions are non-refundable.

13.8 Termination for Cause

• failed to pay amounts due,
• engaged in persistent non-performance/non-engagement after reasonable opportunity to improve,

We may investigate suspected misconduct and take action including suspension/termination and/or charging administrative fees for investigation and remediation where appropriate.

You must not:

• attempt to bypass access controls,
• share accounts or passwords,

---

19. Technical Requirements, Availability, and Third Parties

• We may use third-party providers (hosting, video, email, payment processors). We are not liable for outages or failures caused by third parties beyond our reasonable control, though we will act reasonably to restore service.
• Planned maintenance may occur; we will aim to give reasonable notice where practicable.

---

20. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

20.1 Consumer Rights

Nothing in these Terms limits liability where it would be unlawful to do so, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or fraudulent misrepresentation.

20.2 Limitations (Maximum Protection; Reasonable)

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

• We are not liable for indirect, special, or consequential losses (including loss of profit, business, opportunity, reputation, or data).
• We are not liable for losses arising from your failure to meet regulatory requirements, attend exams, maintain medical fitness, or comply with external rules.

Where we are liable to you, our total liability for claims relating to a purchase will not exceed the amount you paid for the relevant product/service giving rise to the claim (except where the law requires otherwise).

---

21. Force Majeure

We are not responsible for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including (without limitation) regulatory changes, government action, pandemics, facility closures, strikes, severe weather, third-party outages, or security incidents. Where possible, we will act reasonably to provide alternatives.

---

SkyLearner supplies from the UK. Recognition of training, course equivalency, or regulatory acceptance outside the UK is not guaranteed. You are responsible for confirming whether training meets your local authority or employer requirements.

---

23. Complaints and Dispute Resolution

If you have a complaint, contact helpdesk@skylearner.co.uk with details and we will aim to respond within a reasonable time.

Nothing prevents you from pursuing legal remedies. Where applicable, you may have access to consumer ADR/ombudsman routes; however, SkyLearner is not obliged to use ADR unless required by law.

---

24. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The version in force at the time you purchase will apply to that purchase, unless a change is required by law or is purely administrative/clarificatory. The latest version will be published on our website.

---

• Severability: If any provision is held unenforceable, the remainder remains effective.
• No waiver: Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our rights.
