• All daily guided lessons will be recorded and stored on HyperionDev repositories and educational channels to be used as additional resources for future cohorts.
• Campus managers may from time to time take classroom pictures and video clips during lessons/coding power hours. These will be used by HyperionDev through its marketing channels at any point in promoting HyperionDev campuses and onsite training courses.

• Dropping out of the bootcamp - Our curriculum builds cumulatively with each subsequent module tying into the previous. Throughout the bootcamp we’re able to see who is lagging behind or might need more mentorship to ensure they keep up with the rest of the cohort, however, should you decide to terminate your enrolment and/or drop out at any point for whatever reason, you will forfeit all your remaining mentor support and will not be eligible for any refund.
• Pausing the bootcamp - Our in-person bootcamps consist of on-campus learning; thus, students on the full-time track are not allowed to pause or put their studies on hold once the cohort has started. Breaks may be allowed only on certain exceptional circumstances and these would be granted at the sole discretion of the course convenor. However, part-time students may take a break for up to a maximum of one (1) month on their bootcamp.
• Refunds - If you register for a Paid Subscription, you may change your mind for any or no reason and receive a refund to the extent of all monies paid less the “Tuition Deposit” within seven (7) calendar days (the “Cooling-off Period”). Any refund requests made beyond the Cooling-off Period do not qualify and therefore no refunds will be processed thereof. Please see more details on our refund policy here.
• Referrals - You may refer a friend, partner or family member and both of you will receive a 10% discount on the bootcamp price. This discount is only eligible to existing and or newly joining students, and on Upfront Payments for either the full-time or part-time track. To refer someone, please send an email to admissions@hyperiondev.com with full details of your referral, once their registration has been confirmed and identify been verified, you will receive a written approval of your discount with further instructions on how both of you will proceed with the payment.
• Access to content - All students will gain access to a dedicated online dashboard and a personal student content folder. All full-time students and part-time students who have paid upfront will have access to an entire module of their content at a time. Part-time students who are on a monthly subscription plan will have their content staggered according to weekly schedules and monthly milestones.
• Non-Payment - Monthly or installment payments are due on or before the 5th of each month to ensure access to the campus is not restricted. Failure to make payments or to provide sufficient notice of delayed payments could result in restricted content or delay in your graduation. Please contact your mentor or support advisor should you have any question around non-payment once you have registered.

Payments, Cancellations, and Cooling off

Paid Subscriptions can be purchased either by (1) paying a monthly subscription fee; or (2) pre-payment giving you access to Hyperion support for a specific time period (“Pre-Paid Period”). If you have purchased a Paid Subscription upfront, your Paid Subscription will automatically terminate at the end of the Pre-Paid Period.

If you register for a Paid Subscription, you may change your mind for any or no reason and receive a refund to the extent of all monies paid less the “Tuition Deposit” within seven (7) calendar days (the “Cooling-off Period”).
Tuition Deposit: A non-refundable 15% of all monies paid to HyperionDev for a coding bootcamp subscription.

Refunds will not, however, be provided after the Cooling-off Period.

Unless your Paid Subscription has been purchased as a Pre-Paid Period, your payment will automatically renew at the end of the subscription period, unless you cancel your Paid Subscription through your subscription page before the end of the current subscription period. The cancellation will take effect the day after the last day of the current subscription period, and you will be downgraded to the Free Service.

However, if you cancel your payment or Paid Subscription and/or terminate any of the Agreements (1) after the Cooling-off Period is over (where applicable), or (2) before the end of the current subscription period, we will not refund any subscription fees already paid to us.

If you wish to receive a refund before the Cooling-off Period is over, you must contact Customer Support.

Refund requests meeting all requirements will be processed by Hyperion Development within 20 working days.

Hyperion Development may change the price for the Paid Subscriptions or Pre-Paid Period (for periods not yet paid for) from time to time. Price changes for Paid Subscriptions will take effect at the start of the next subscription period following the date of the price change. Should Hyperion Development adjust pricing, we endeavour to provide at least 7 days' notice to existing customers on recurring subscription prior to changes taking effect. If you do not agree with the price changes, you have the right to reject the change by unsubscribing from the Hyperion Development support prior to the price change going into effect. Please therefore make sure you read any such notification of price changes carefully.

Table: Payment Plan

3.3 Disenrollment Policy

This policy sets out the rules of attendance on our programmes and the minimum requirements to pass a programme under the Job Guarantee and the Promotion. The table below sets out the requirements for a student to pass the relevant programme (the rows marked ‘Failing’) and the number of attempts allowed to meet these requirements (the rows marked ‘Attendance’). Note that these rules may vary from our usual Disenrollment Policy, and are set to align to the commitment we expect from students for us to be able to offer a Job Guarantee.

If a student fails a programme by not meeting the required grades in the allocated number of resubmissions for their relevant programme, they will be disenrolled from the programme and no longer allowed to study or graduate from the programme.

If a student fails a programme by not attending the required on-site or online mentor sessions (ie if a full-time onsite student is absent from our campus for 3 days consecutively, or a part-time online students misses 2 online mentor calls in a month), they will be disenrolled from the programme and no longer allowed to study or graduate from the programme.

Attendance for on-site programmes is tracked daily by our platform and on-site lecturers and teaching assistants. Attendance for on-line programmes is tracked by login times on our platform and sign-in to online mentor calls/tutorial session. Students agree that this tracking is the final authoritative record of their attendance, and no other informed may be used to substitute our attendance records.

Grading is determined on a 16 point basis for each task submitted on a bootcamp. 16 points are distributed across the 4 areas of skill, one being ‘Completeness’. Students must achieve the minimum grades within the allocated resubmissions below for tasks (smaller assignments) and capstone projects (larger assignments) at the minimum grades set out below for their programme. Grades assigned through a code review system. Students agree that this grading is the final authoritative record of their grading, and no other informed may be used to substitute our grading records.
