What leaders ask before enrolling.

How do I pay?
Online with GCash, Maya or a card, confirmed instantly, or by bank transfer with a proof upload that the Institute verifies within one business day. Your seat is held for 48 hours while you pay.
Can my company pay?
Yes. Choose bank transfer and your company can pay against the reference on your instructions email. Companies enrolling several leaders can write to the Institute for a single invoice.
What if I miss a session?
The completion rule is at least six of the eight sessions in every part. Attendance is recorded every session and you can see your standing in the learner portal at any time.
What happens in the virtual sessions?
Live, facilitated sessions on Zoom, one Saturday morning at a time, with the same cohort. Join links are in your portal. Attendance is taken from the session record.
How is the certificate verified?
Every certificate carries a serial number and a QR code. Anyone can scan it or type the code on the Institute's verification page to confirm it is genuine and still valid.
Is the fee refundable?
Full refund up to fourteen days before the cohort starts, less payment-gateway fees; after that, a seat can be transferred to a colleague. Aventris sets the final policy.
