We recognise that it is important you that you pass your course. While we cannot guarantee you will pass, we promise to do everything we can to ensure you do. In fact for many of our courses, if you fail we will allow you to re take the course (or necessary parts of the course) a second time free of charge.

THE CHIEFTAIN SECOND CHANCE PROMISE

If you join a course that is covered by the “Chieftain Second Chance Promise” and you do not pass first time we will allow you to re take the required sections of the course (or the full course if appropriate) a second time free of charge (within 12 months of completing your original course and subject to conditions).
