Currency & International Payments

Do I have to pay in U.S. Dollars (USD)? What if I’m in the UK or elsewhere?

We list all prices in USD ($) because over half of our customers are based internationally — particularly in the USA.

All prices are listed in U.S. dollars (USD). Your bank or payment provider may convert the payment into your local currency. Exchange rates and any international transaction fees depend on your payment provider.

Will I be charged any extra fees?

Symonds Research does not charge any additional fees for international purchases. Your bank or card provider will convert the payment from U.S. dollars into your local currency using its applicable exchange rate. Some banks may apply their own currency conversion charges.

Is checkout secure?

Yes! All transactions are processed securely via trusted payment providers such as PayPal and Stripe. We never store or access your payment details.

Am I allowed to change the training materials to adapt them if I want to?

Yes, the training materials are designed to be fully adaptable and editable so that you can edit slides and forms to suit your company or audience.

You cannot resell the training, though. The training is for you as the trainer to provide training and not for you to resell.

What format do the files come in?

The training materials are provided as digital files, including editable Microsoft PowerPoint and Word documents.

Is it safe to buy online from you?

Indeed, we use the biggest and most popular payment systems online by using Stripe and PayPal.

We do not store your card details, and we do not pass on any financial details to anyone else.

What payment types do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards and PayPal payments.

Do I need a mailing address?

No. Everything you receive will be sent to you by email, so you just need to make sure you have access to the email you use for buying the training materials.

What if I change my mind after buying the course materials?

Once the training materials have been downloaded or accessed, we cannot offer refunds. However, if you experience any problems, please contact us, and we’ll do our best to help.

I just bought a set of training course materials, but I haven’t received them!

The first thing to do is to check the spam folder in your email, just in case, for some reason, the email with the details of the course materials has ended up there.

Do also allow up to one hour, just in case your email provider has any issues. After that, please feel free to contact our customer care department.

What is your copyright policy?

We reserve all rights, which in effect means that you are not permitted to resell the training materials.

Classroom lesson plans

How many times may I use the training package?

You can use the course materials as many times as you want. If you are teaching a course 10 times in one year, then you only need to buy the training materials package from us one time. You can use it as much as you want to!

Can I resell the item or give it to someone else?

The materials are licensed for you to edit and deliver training sessions as often as needed. You may not resell the materials or redistribute the editable files outside the uses permitted by our license.

Are the training course materials suitable for all forms of English, i.e., American and British English?

The training materials are designed such that they are suitable for American English, British English, and all other forms of English. The lessons are generic in that they are not specific to any language, and where needed, if a word might otherwise be confusing, both the American and British English words are used together.
