Student Fee Protection Rules 2013 (v5)

7. Course Closure Event

Where NZQA gives notice to the Supplier and Provider, of a Course Closure Event of a Provider, the Provider’s Mechanism(s) will be triggered, requiring Pro Rata Refunds to be made to Students affected by the Course Closure Event.
Where a Course Closure Event is due to a natural disaster any notice by NZQA under Rule 7.1 will not take effect where:

the Course resumes before the start of the 11th working day after the date of the notice; and
each Student is notified by the Provider within five working days from the date of the notice of the right to opt out of the Course, and where the Student does opt out within 20 working days of the date of the notice, a Pro Rata Refund is made to the Student for the remaining Tuition Fees, calculated from the time the Student ceased attending.
