No further extensions will be available beyond this period. The training fee extension amount will vary depending on the specific course and the duration elapsed since the original completion deadline.

Learners will receive complimentary access to the Archon Fitness League App until they achieve certification or for a maximum of 12 months while actively learning. If a learner has not completed the course by the end of this period, they may purchase continued access to the app.

Upon completion of the course all student portfolios will be subject to internal verification. This process will be completed within 14 days of the portfolio completion. All portfolios may be subject to additional remedial work requirements as specified in the internal verification report. In this instance, it is the responsibility of the student to ensure that this remedial work is completed (with the guidance of an allocated tutor). Portfolio completion is defined as the portfolio percentage reaching 100%.

We advise students to keep a copy of all work submitted for their records. Work is only stored for 3 months, after this period it will be destroyed.
