Refund & transfer

Refund Policy.

Last updated: 28 May 2026. Required reading before enrolment.

All payments are non-refundable

Once enrolment is confirmed and payment is made, fees are non-refundable. This rule applies to every SAS Coaching Diploma program across Lebanon, the UAE and Saudi Arabia.

Fees are transferable

If you can't continue, you can transfer your fees to another SAS Coaching Diploma course, or to a future cohort of the same program. Transfer is granted with a valid reason, subject to SAS-CCE review.

Force majeure

In cases of force majeure (medical emergencies with documentation, or other exceptional circumstances beyond the student's control), SAS-CCE will review the case and may issue a refund at its sole discretion, in addition to the transfer option.

How to request a transfer

Email sas.cce@sas.edu.lb with the subject "Transfer request · [your full name] · [program]" and a short explanation of your situation. We confirm receipt within 2 working days.

This page summarises the refund and transfer clauses in your signed Student Enrolment Agreement (SEA). If there is any difference between this page and the SEA, the SEA governs.

Short courses · Lifelong Learning

Terms for the EREPS approved short courses.

Price and payment

USD 50 per course, or USD 175 for all four. Fees are paid in full before access is opened. There are no other fees: the lessons, slides, workbook, quiz and certificate are all included.

Access and learning time

Each course is 2.5 hours of learning, fully online and self paced. Access runs for 12 months from the day it is opened. Nothing is live, so there is no date to miss.

Who can enrol

Qualified fitness instructors and personal trainers (EQF Level 3 or equivalent) from any recognised body. Still studying? Take them after you graduate, so the hours count toward your first EREPS renewal.

Quiz and certificate

Three attempts at the 10 question quiz, pass mark 70%. The certificate of completion is issued automatically when you pass and carries the EREPS Approved Training logo and the learning outcomes. Not passing is not a reason for a refund.

If a course is withdrawn

If SAS-CCE withdraws a course before you have completed it, or cannot deliver it, you receive a full refund of that course's fee. For a bundle, the unused courses are refunded pro rata.

Changing your mind

Before access is opened, you can switch to another short course or to a full programme at no cost. Once a course has been opened, the general policy above applies: fees are transferable, not refundable.

These courses are approved by EuropeActive and EREPS as Lifelong Learning. Questions: cce@sas.edu.lb or WhatsApp +971 55 807 6344.
