Our registered office is: 3rd Floor, 40 Queen Street, London, EC4R 1DD. To contact us, please email enquiries@charteredabs.org or telephone us on 020 7236 7678.

These terms apply when you use express your interest in, or apply for, the Programme. Please read them carefully.

By registering or applying you accept these terms

By registering your interest in, or applying for, the Programme, you confirm on behalf of your business that you accept these terms and that you and it agree to comply with them.

If you do not agree to these terms, you must not register your interest for, or apply to, the Programme.

We recommend that you print a copy of these terms for future reference.

By registering your interest in the Programme, you agree to receive further information from us about the Programme, including details about programme dates, providers and how to complete your registration.

You acknowledge that registering your interest does not secure you a place on the Programme.

We provide these terms on our own behalf and on behalf of the business schools which will deliver the Programme.  The contract for your place on the Programme will be between your business and the business school you enrol with.  The Chartered Association of Business Schools is not a party to such contract. 

Application process and contract with business school

You will need to comply with the eligibility criteria and complete a registration form on our website when registration opens.  Your application will be processed by the business school you apply to.  That business school will assess your eligibility for the Programme and contact you to offer you a place or decline your application.  The contract between your business and the business school will be formed when the business school’s offer is accepted by you on behalf of your business. The Programme fee will then become payable to the business school.  At all times your business’s relationship in respect of the Programme is with the business school where you accept a place.

You must ensure that any information you provide in your application, and during the Programme, about you and your business, is true and correct.

Programme terms

• the business school may need to change the content, structure, venue, timing, course directors/presenters of the Programme (for example if a venue is not available or in case of staff sickness or other absence).  The business school will endeavour to notify you of any such change as soon as reasonably practicable.
