Registration and Payment

REGISTRATION

For each course, register with us before / or application deadline (as stated in the table). Only registrations with fully completed forms will be processed.

Note: Please do not make payment on the same day as registration. This is because registration does not mean you have been accepted into the class. Once the class is confirmed, we will notify you of your successful acceptance. Otherwise, we will advise you on other options till you are accepted.

Confirmation via email or SMS will be sent out three to five working days after the application deadline. It will include the class details, class schedule and payment method. If you have not received the confirmation notification, please contact us. Once confirmed, the next step is payment for the course. Please bring the confirmed email along with the payment. Please make an appointment before coming so that the officer-in-charge will be able to acknowledge your application and collect payment personally.  

Note: Once registered, please wait for a confirmation email with class details first before making a payment. Thank you!

PAYMENT METHODS

All course fees are processed in Singapore Dollars (SGD). We accept payment via PayNow (QR or UEN), cash, Nets/Nets QR and cheque.

Detailed payment instructions will be shared with you via email once your registration is successful.

Securing your slot: As class sizes are limited, please complete your payment at least 5 working days before the course starts. Otherwise, your slot may be released to applicants on the waiting list.

Online registration: Please note that we are unable to accept walk-in registrations. All applications must be submitted online and we will contact you via email once your seat is confirmed.

Please review our terms and conditions before registering, especially regarding payments, withdrawals and cancellations.

PAYMENT, REFUND & CANCELLATION POLICIES 

Payment

Payment of course fees must be made at least five working days prior to the commencement of the course. Payment can be made by cheque (payable to The Singapore Association for the Deaf), cash or NETS at SADeaf office during office hours. SADeaf will not be liable for any overdraft charges levied by your bank should the cheque be ‘referred to drawer’. See Payment Methods section. SADeaf will not accept the payment without the confirmation notification.

 

Withdrawals (more than five working days prior to course commencement)

When a written notification of withdrawal from a course is received five working days or more prior to the course date, a refund of the course fee, less a $15 administration fee, will be levied on the registered participant/s. Alternatively, a participant may choose to transfer to another course (see the next section).


Deferrals

A participant may not defer from a course within five working days prior to the course commencement date. If you wish to transfer your registration to another course more than five working days prior to the course commencement date, there is no charge provided the replacement course has the same fees as the original course. There is a limit of two (2) deferrals per participant per year for a single registration.


Late Withdrawals (within 5 working days prior to course commencement)

When a written notification of withdrawal from a course is received within five working days prior to the course date, no refund of the course fee will be made and the participant may not transfer to another course. Exceptions will be made if the applicant produces a Medical Certificate in which case a deferral may be made, or at SADeaf’s discretion.

As the participant has paid for a place in the course, a substitute participant may be nominated at no extra charge.

Course Cancellations

SADeaf reserves the right to cancel any course.

When a course has been cancelled by SADeaf, a full refund will be given to all registered participants.
