Below are the costs and details for the UK programme (only) to be held at the King Clinic, Epsom, Surrey. This programme has a low teacher / student ratio for enhanced learning.(Prices for International Courses are set by local organisers and may vary depending on the size of the class i.e. teacher / student ratio, so please contact the local organisers. Their details are listed with the courses on International Courses page.):-

Please note that as our clinic is registered for VAT (Value Added Tax), by law we must add this charge to all services (including training, but excluding Osteopathy & Physiotherapy, which are legally exempt). VAT is currently 17.5%, but as of 5th January 2011 it will rise to 20%(as below). So I'm sorry, but VAT must be applied to all course fees.

Levels (Years) 1,2 & 3 full payment for 3 years = £2400 (equals £800 per year) + VAT = Total £2820 (for 2010, but rising to £2,880 from Jan 2011)

Level (Year) 1 full payment at start - £900 + VAT = Total £1,057-50p (for 2010, but rising to £1080 from Jan 2011)

Level (Year) 1 installment payments (£1,000 divided by 12)= £83.34 monthly + VAT = Total £97.92 per month (for 2010)and then £100 per month (from Jan 2011)



Note: In special cases and on application, consideration may be given to foreign students negotiating a reduction in some fees to partially offset some travel and accommodation costs, however this is not an automatic right.
