Early payment is advised in order to secure participation and help reach the course minimum participation - unfortunately, courses may occasionally be cancelled or rescheduled, if the confirmed participation in advance is very low.

Last part cut in video
Sep 15, 2015
Hello,
Unfortunately I could not attend the live webinar. I watched the video later but I noticed that the last part - the most important IMHO where everything we heard blends together - was cut off. Is there any chance that you will upload the whole video in the future?
Many thanks and regards, Rania
