1. Overview

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern the registration, attendance, and participation in live online learning workshops (the “Workshops”) provided by Blast Group Inc (“Blast”). By registering for a Workshop, participants (“Participants”) agree to these Terms in full. Participants as referred to in these Terms may also include a representative organizing and registering participants on their behalf.

2. Registration and Payment

Payment Requirement: Payment must be made in full at the time of registration to secure your spot in the Workshop.

Payment Methods: Blast accepts payment via credit card. All transactions are processed securely through Blast’s payment processing partners.

Confirmation: Upon successful registration and payment, you will receive a confirmation email with details of the Workshop, including date, time, and information on how to access the Workshop.

3. Cancellations and Refunds

Cancellations: Participants may cancel their participation in a Workshop, subject to the Refund Terms that follow.

Full Refunds: Participants who cancel more than 15 days before the Workshop are eligible for a full refund.

Partial Refunds: Cancellations made from 7-15 days prior to the Workshop are eligible for a partial refund of 50 percent (50%).

No Refunds: Due to program demand and the adverse impact of late cancellations on the quality of Workshop learning for other participants, cancellations made less than 7 days before the Workshop are non-refundable. No refunds are provided when Participants join late or leave the Workshop early.

Provider Cancellations: Blast reserves the right to cancel or reschedule any Workshop due to unforeseen circumstances including but not limited to sudden illness of the instructor or technology platform failure. In the event of a cancellation, participants will be offered the option to reschedule or receive a full refund.

4. Access and Participation

Access: Participants will receive a reminder of their Workshop within 24 hours of the scheduled start time. The reminder will include information and link(s) to access the Workshop.

Participation: Blast strives to deliver the best possible learning experience in its Workshops. In this regard, Blast supports diversity and inclusion in Workshop participation. As such, participants are encouraged to engage in Workshop discussions, being respectful and mindful of their impact on the learning time and quality of other participants. Disruptive behaviour, including inappropriate or offensive comments, will not be tolerated and may result in removal of a Participant from the Workshop without refund.

Technical Requirements: It is the Participant’s responsibility to ensure that they have the necessary equipment (e.g., computer, stable internet connection) and software (e.g., Zoom, WebEx) to attend the Workshop.

Readiness and Attendance: Participants are expected to join the Workshop at the scheduled start time. Late access to the Workshop is discouraged. In the event that a Participant will be late joining the Workshop, they must notify Blast as early as possible. Upon joining the Workshop late, Participants will not interrupt the Workshop in progress. Instead, the late-joining Participant will wait for the Workshop instructor to introduce them. Early departures from the Workshop are discouraged. Participants who need to leave the Workshop early should notify the Instructor before the Workshop starts.

Intellectual Property:

All materials provided during the Workshop, including but not limited to slides, videos, and handouts, are the intellectual property of Blast or its content partners.

Participants may only use Workshop materials for their own individual professional development. Participants may not copy, distribute or otherwise disseminate Workshop materials with other parties who have not paid to participate in the Workshop.

6. Liability and Disclaimer

No Guarantee of Results: Blast Workshops are designed to provide valuable insights and skills for the professional development of Participants. However, due to significant differences in learning needs and behaviours, Blast does not guarantee the completeness of content for the subjects in focus, nor any specific outcome or result from participating in the Workshop.

Limitation of Liability: Blast is not liable for any direct or indirect damages, including but not limited to loss of time, profits or data, arising from participation in the Workshop.

Your registration information and personal data will be handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We do not share or sell your information with third parties, except as necessary to process your registration and deliver the Workshop.

8. Changes to Terms

Blast reserves the right to update these Terms from time to time. Any changes will be communicated to you, and continued participation in the Workshop indicates acceptance of the updated Terms.
