Certification:
 
There are multiple certificate programs. Each course has an allotted completion period allowed. This time frame may vary from course to course. You can find the course completion period and expiration date for your course by looking at your course record in your student portal by logging into your account at issatrainer.com. If you fail to complete the program requirements within the allotted time, extensions may be provided for an additional fee. Completion of the program beyond the final extension period requires re-enrollment. Students must submit all course quizzes, score 75% or better on all sections of either a seminar, home study or online examination, as well as submit a copy of an Adult CPR/AED Certification within the defined enrollment period. To obtain certification and remain in good standing with ISSA, you must be current on all payments. If you have selected a Payment Plan for this course, your certificate will not be issued until you have paid at least 1/12th of your total order amount. Your course progress will be monitored, and your certification may not be issued if fraudulent activity is suspected. ISSA reserves the right to require a student to complete a proctored exam to demonstrate mastery of the course content if fraudulent activity is suspected.


Eligibility:
 
In order to sit for a certification examination, the Company’s Board of Directors requires that candidates are 18 years of age or older and hold a valid Adult CPR and AED certifications from an approved CPR/AED provider, such as the American Red Cross, American Heart Association, the Emergency Care & Safety Institution (please contact your Success Coach to confirm that any other provider has been approved). Your enrollment and completion of an ISSA examination implies that you are confirming you meet the minimum age requirement.


Shipping and Delivery:
 
In-stock items normally ship in 2 business days for orders placed before 12:00 p.m. (noon) PST, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. Access to online courses may take 2 business days to process. International orders (placed from outside the United States) must be paid for by credit card or wire transfer. Due to the variance of international shipping rates, the Company will add the exact shipping charge to your purchase order.


Promotions and Discounts:
 
Periodically, the Company offers promotions or discounts that will be immediately reflected in the purchase price if entered at the time of purchase. Most promotions and discounts are offered with specific terms and conditions, including eligibility conditions, so customers are advised to review these terms and conditions in advance of purchase. Please note that promotions and discounts are not stackable - only one promotion or discount can be applied to an order and that, after the initial purchase, adjustments to the purchase price for promotions or discounts will only be honored if presented to your Success Coach within 30 days of the original purchase. Company's promotions, discounts, and guarantees will change from time to time.


In addition to the terms and conditions above, all promotions are subject to the student remaining current on all associated payment plans. The event of a default at any time invalidates promotions associated with the purchase of products or services.


Corporate Discounts:
 
Corporate pricing for products and services may be available for certain business accounts. Please contact a Sales Associate for more details. Corporate discounts and credits may not be combined with other offers and are not transferable. Additional restrictions may apply. For a corporate discount to apply, the person making the purchase must be employed by the corporate entity, and have proof of employment, on the date of the purchase. A corporate discount presented within 30 days of the initial purchase will be honored provided that the employment requirements are satisfied.


Bulk Purchases:
 
Bulk purchases may be available for certain business accounts. Please contact a Sales Associate for more details.


Administrative and Technology Fee:
 
For each transaction, we charge a 5% administrative and technology fee. This fee helps cover the cost of various administrative and technological services including providing ongoing access to success coaches, manual test grading, maintaining our learning management system, and improving our digital infrastructure.


Taxes:
 
In certain jurisdictions your purchase may be subject to tax. Any sales tax, fee, or charge of any nature imposed as a result of the sale by any governmental authority, shall be paid by the User in addition to any purchase price. All prices listed on the Sites are exclusive of tax. The Company may charge the User for any applicable taxes at any time, including after the initial purchase.


Payment Options:
 
The Company accepts the following credit and debit card types: American Express, Discover Card, Visa, MasterCard, and PayPal. Additional forms of payment with business checks, cashier's checks or money order are accepted for paid in full non-installment orders and orders placed within the United States. If for any reason payment is incomplete or untimely (returned check, declined credit card, etc.), your account will be placed on hold and you (or, if you are a fitness or educational partner, your students or employees) will be unable to access or complete any online material, quizzes or exams until full payment of the then due amount, plus any fees, is received, processed and approved. The Company has the right to reject any order and/or to limit quantities on any order, for any reason at its sole discretion.


Installment Plans:
 
The Company may offer installment payment plans for some products and services. Contact a sales associate for more details. A valid form of payment must be provided in order to enter and maintain an installment plan. Cancellations of a payment form does not excuse you from making the remaining installment payments. Except to the extent restricted by applicable law, the Company may declare your plan to be in default if: (a) we are unable to process a payment when due or a full payment is not received and you do not then make the full amount of such payment within five (5) business days of the scheduled due date; or (b) any event occurs that, in our reasonable judgment, significantly impairs the prospect of performance of your payment obligations. If we determine an event of default has occurred, we may, immediately and without advance notice, suspend or terminate your ability to have continued or future access to the Products and Services, to revoke your certification, if any, and refuse to recertify you.


Default:
 
If a payment plan is declared to be in default, where legally permitted the Company reserves the right to call your entire balance immediately, as well as pursue balances due through legal action or third-party collections agencies. In the event of a default, the student is responsible for all associated costs of collection, including but not limited to attorney fees and court costs. Additionally, the Company reserves the right to report payment defaults to credit agencies.


The Company reserves the right to sell all or a portion of the payment stream associated with payment plans to third-party agencies at any time.


Refund Policy:
 
All sales are final seven (7) days after the date of purchase (the "Return Period") (certain products are final on the date of purchase – see those listed below). In other words, as of the 8th day following the date of purchase, the Company will not provide refunds or accept returns. You must contact your Success Coach within the Return Period to request a refund. If you have attempted the final test, exam or proctored exam associated with the product or service you purchased, you will not be entitled to a refund. A 10% return processing fee may apply to refunds and is based upon the "Product or Promotion Price", which is the total purchase price including applicable taxes minus all standard fees charged at the time of purchase. The following standard fees are nonrefundable: shipping and/or handling, application, administration, test extension, late cancellation, retest, workshop transfer, program extension, petition, recertification, and recertification late fees. Refunds are only available for the portion of the "Product Price and Promotion" already paid. Often products are sold as packages (e.g., electronic textbook, online program, and final exam). Refunds are not available for individual items within a Product Package. If an item within a Product Package is defective, you can request an exchange of that item by contacting your Success Coach within the Return Period.


All sales are final on Continuing Education Units, CPR certifications and the CPT Study Expansion Pack. Refunds are not provided on these products.
