Important Notes

Please note that our language lessons are non-credit, meaning they do not count toward credit for a degree-granting program. These courses are designed for skill enhancement, whether for personal interest or professional development.

To ensure the best learning experience, our group lessons run with a minimum number of participants. If a class does not meet this requirement, we will contact you to offer alternative options or a full refund.

Before your lessons begin, we assess your proficiency level using an online placement test. Once you have registered and paid for your sessions, you will receive instructions on how to complete the test.

To ensure an accurate and holistic evaluation of your language skills and to place you in the most appropriate level, all sections of the placement test must be completed.

Glendon Continuing Education reserves the right to change or cancel course offerings in the event of mitigating circumstances. If we are no longer able to offer a course, or if you are unable to participate due to changes in the offerings, a full refund will be issued.

Participants who choose to withdraw after the course has started may be eligible for a partial refund, at the discretion of Glendon Continuing Education.
