These terms apply to the Association of Learning Black Friday 2026 free course offer.
The offer applies to orders placed between 00:00 on Monday 16 November 2026 and 23:59 on Tuesday 1 December 2026, UK time.
You get one free course per order, however many courses are on the order.
The free course is a single diploma course certified by the National Institution of Qualifications (NIOQ), from the list on our offer page, in the Online version only.
You must choose your free course by 23:59 on 31 January 2027, using the link we email you. Links that haven't been used by then expire.
Your free course is added only once you have completed your first (paid) course. You must inform Association of Learning when you have completed your first course. If you don't complete your first course, there is no free course. Extending your first course does not release the free course.
Your first course and your free course must be completed one at a time, and both courses must be completed within the standard support period of your first course (of 12 months, unless otherwise stipulated). Your free course does not get a separate support period.
If your order has more than one course, the free course goes with the highest-priced course on the order, and that is the course you must complete first.
We send your link once we have received your deposit (monthly payment plans) or full payment.
The free course is linked to your order. It can't be transferred, exchanged for cash, or changed once you have chosen it.
If your paid order is refunded or cancelled, including within the 14-day cancellation period, the free course is withdrawn, and a free course already added to your account will be removed.
You won't be offered courses you already have. If a course you chose becomes unavailable, we may ask you to choose again.
