Registration Fees

Registration fees for programs are as advertised on the individual course brochure or registration page. You will only be registered or have access to a program once we receive payment. Registration for a webinar grants only the registered attendee access to the course and program materials. CPD credit will only be recognized with the regulator for the purchaser named on the confirmation. Infringement of our intellectual property rights may attract serious consequences. For group licenses, please contact jennifer@seminarpartners.ca.

We offer group discounts on single webinars, based on the number of registrants, as follows:
3 registrants – 15% off the current registration fee
10 registrants – 20% off the current registration fee
15 registrants – 25% off the current registration fee

Group discounts must be processed by our staff, in advance of the program. You cannot receive group discounts through our online registration system. Group discounts are restricted to registrations from the same firm or organization, received at the same time. Retroactive discounts are not possible. We require complete contact information for all members of a group. The above discounts do not apply to the Seminar Partners Annual Loyalty Pass.

Substitutions & Refunds

Course dates, times and locations are subject to change. If you cancel your registration for a course in writing 10 working days prior to the program, you will receive a full refund, less a $50 + HST administrative fee. No refunds will be issued for any reason after the cancellation date. Cancellation notices should be sent to jennifer@seminarpartners.ca or faxed to 416.549.1619. If you prefer to send a substitute, rather than cancel, you may designate a substitute to attend a webinar in your place. No substitutions will be permitted for webinar registrations once access instructions have been distributed.

If You Miss the Program...

The archive period for all webinar programs is 60 days. Access instructions for archives are sent to all confirmed registrants by email 3 working days after the live program. If you missed the live program, please access the archive during the 60 day archive period. Log-in records for CPD regulators will be closed and added to the program file at the end of this period.

CPD Credit

We are an Accredited Provider of Professionalism Content by the Law Society of Ontario, and a Pre-approved CPD Provider by the Law Society of British Columbia. The time spent attending our programs may be eligible for CPD credit in all Canadian provinces and territories. Please consult the program brochure, registration page, or materials for eligible CPD hours. It is the responsibility of registrants to confirm eligible CPD hours for their jurisdiction. Please note: inadvertent errors in CPD notices will not entitle a registrant to a refund or credit.

Satisfaction Guarantee

We stand behind every program we deliver. If, after having attended a program in its entirety, you are not satisfied that the program has enhanced your understanding of the subject, and you notify us of this in writing the same day, we will give you a credit toward another program of comparable price.

Hardship Applications

We believe that all lawyers should have access to the benefits of quality continuing legal education, especially if they are experiencing financial difficulty. We annually grant reduced fees to over a dozen lawyers who demonstrate financial need and practice areas which relate to a particular course. Please submit requests for reduced fees to jessica@seminarpartners.ca.
