PAYMENTS & POLICIES
The following policies apply to all classroom, on-site, and e-learning training services and products

Cancellation, rescheduling and refund process
SAP classroom cancellations and rescheduling
SAP classroom cancellations and rescheduling will only be processed by calling our registration department directly at 1-888-777-1727.
SAP will confirm all cancellations or rescheduling requests by fax or e-mail. If the customer does not receive a
confirmation of cancellation or rescheduling within three (3) business days of the request, the customer should call +1-
888-777-1727 to reconfirm. Financial responsibility remains with the customer for all class fees unless a proper
cancellation or rescheduling request is received and confirmed by SAP prior to the start of the class.
If you are crossing the Canadian or U.S. border to attend a training class, be aware of the destination government's
customs regulations and services. If you are refused entry, SAP will not be held responsible for your registration fees or
