Your registration fee is in addition to the tuition fee, as outlined in the fees breakdown table above. The IOPN Diploma is accredited by CFI (an OfQual regulated awarding organisation) as an EQF Level 7 qualification. We are therefore required to pay the awarding organisation £445 to register you as a student in order for you to receive formal accreditation for your award upon successful completion of the IOPN Diploma program. For further information visit our accreditation page. Please also note, your registration fee is tax exempt and is a disbursement to the awarding organisation, CFI (OfQual AO) who are a charitable organisation and as such are exempt from VAT.

The tuition fee is separate to your registration fee, as outlined in the fees breakdown table above. We offer three flexible pricing options as explained in the total fees breakdown. To recap, students can: > Pay in full - one transaction including registration fee and tuition fee > Pay the registration fee, followed by 10 monthly instalments for the tuition fee > Pay the registration fee, followed by 18 monthly instalments for the tuition fee Please note, for students who wish to pay over 10 or 18 monthly instalments: > The registration fee must be paid before the 25th day of the cohort month. When you pay the registration fee, you give consent for our enrolment team to schedule your first regular monthly instalment to commence on the 25th of the cohort month. For example, for our February 2023 cohort, the first of the regular monthly instalments will commence on 25th February 2023 and will proceed for 10 or 18 months as specified in your application. > You will not be able to to graduate until you have paid the tuition fees in full. In the event you complete the IOPN Diploma before your final monthly instalment, you may choose to pay off the remaining balance. A final one-off transaction can be arranged with our enrolment team. Payments are handled securely through our payment processing partner, Stripe. To learn more about Stripe, please visit stripe.com.
