In June 2024, BBHSCA introduced a new multiple booking discount scheme. For half-day courses, when booking five or more places, you will receive a 20% discount off the full price. Multiple bookings can be for a mix of courses and/or a mix of participants attending the same course(s).
The discount scheme is available to all irrespective of whether you are an ICAEW member.
The below pricing and discounts are applied automatically at the time of booking and are valid for individuals booking more than one course and organisations booking multiple delegates or courses.
Fees Per Delegate Per Half-Day Course
| Single booking for an in person or live online session (ICAEW member or non-member) | £99.00+VAT | ||
| Discounted rate for 5 or more bookings (ICAEW member or non-member 20% off the full price of 5 bookings or more for in person and live online sessions) | £79.20+VAT | ||

On receipt, you must pre-register to receive your unique link to access the event.

If you cancel a course which benefits from the multiple booking discount you could lose the discount on all courses booked together. The change of delegate names or transfer to other BBHSCA courses is permitted without penalty.
It is recommended you transfer to an alternative course to maintain the discount. The discounts do not apply to the low/ half rate prices as these are already discounted.
