The Systems 3 Group ensures that all participants are provided with equal opportunities to learn through the fair allocation of resources and the right to equality of opportunity without discrimination. The Systems 3 Group tries to ensure that the selected venue does not disadvantage people with disabilities. Where the venue cannot cater for certain disabilities, then course participants will be advised of any limitations at the time of registration. Program timing can be varied to suit religious commitments. Advance notice of potential barriers to learning will assist S3G in ensuring optimum outcomes for all.

The Systems 3 Group understands that individual participants may require “one-on–one” assistance during a program. All S3G presenters are available to provide individual tuition during a program. This service is offered free of additional charge.

The Systems 3 Group is committed to maintaining openness and fairness in all assessment decisions. All participants who wish to appeal an assessment outcome should do so in writing. Initial appeals are considered internally. Should this process not achieve an agreement, a mutually acceptable third party will be appointed at S3G's expense.

We understand that, on occasions, individual participants may be unable to attend a scheduled program. Should a participant wish to make a program cancellation or transfer, the following policies apply:
For cancellations more than ten working days from a program commencement, The Systems 3 Group will refund course fees in full or arrange a transfer to another program.
For cancellations received 10 working days or less from program commencement, The Systems 3 Group welcomes substitute participants without additional charge. Fee refunds are not available and transfers will incur a 10% transfer fee. Where a participant does not attend the course, any course fees will not be refunded or transferred to another course. Participants are still liable for all course fees which are unpaid.

The Systems 3 Group has established financial procedures which ensure protection of course fees paid in advance.

The Systems 3 Group recognises the existing knowledge of participants wherever possible. Participants seeking recognition of their current competence should apply in writing prior to course commencement. Successful applicants may receive exemptions from elements of individual programs. Please note however, that some internationally registered programs do not allow for the application of RPL principles.

The Systems 3 Group will recognise properly documented and demonstrated competencies acquired at competency element or competency unit level and assessed by other Exemplar Global accredited Training Providers.
