Basis of contract

The Order constitutes an offer by the Customer to purchase the Bootcamp(s) and/or access to Career Support Services in accordance with these Conditions.

The Order shall only be deemed to be accepted when Mastered issues written acceptance of the Order at which point and on which date the Contract shall come into existence (the "Contract Start Date").

The Contract constitutes the entire agreement between the parties. The Customer acknowledges that it has not relied on any statement, promise, representation, assurance or warranty made or given by or on behalf of Mastered, which is not set out in the Contract.

Any samples, drawings, descriptive matter or advertising issued by Mastered, and any descriptions or illustrations contained on Mastered's Website, are issued or published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Bootcamp(s) described in them. They shall not form part of the Contract or have any contractual force.

These Conditions apply to the Contract to the exclusion of any other terms that the Customer seeks to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing.

Bootcamp “Support Until Hired”

Mastered supplies the Bootcamp(s) to Customers in accordance with these Conditions.

Each Bootcamp shall include the features set out on the relevant Landing Page which may include, but are not limited to:

    access to one-to-one services, including Mentor Sessions and coaching;

    access to group sessions and industry talks;

    access to Mastered's content and/or online video library in respect of any Bootcamp in which a Customer participates so that the teaching sessions can be watched again (such access being subject to Website updates but in any event, available for a minimum of one (1) years);

    careers support services including the ability to get dedicated advice and support for your job search.

Mastered shall have the right to make any changes to the Bootcamp(s) which are necessary to comply with any applicable law or safety requirement, or which do not materially affect the nature or quality of the Bootcamp(s) and Mastered shall notify the Customer in any such event.

All Technical Mentors and Coaches who instruct on the Bootcamps are not employed by Mastered and are appointed as independent contractors. Mastered (on behalf of itself and any Bootcamp Finance Partner) excludes liability to the furthest extent permitted by law and pursuant to clause 21 in relation to a Bootcamp (including, but not limited to, the Mentors who instruct on a Bootcamp).

At Mastered’s sole and absolute discretion, Bootcamps may be provided using Third Party Platforms. In the event that Third Party Platforms are used, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Mastered makes no representations and has no liability in respect of any loss suffered by the Customer as a result of using such Third Party Platforms.

Subject to clause 4.6, on completion of Technical Mentoring Phase One of the Bootcamp(s), the Customer may access Phase Two, Mastered’s careers and job support services, which include but are not limited to Mastered’s employees or consultants (“Career Support Services”):

    reviewing the Customer’s CV, Linkedin profile and other social media accounts;

    conducting regular one-to-one Sessions (“Career Agent Sessions”) with the Customer to discuss the Customer’s recent job applications, job interviews, CV and other topics associated with the Customer’s job search;

    advising the Customer on his/her job search strategy;

    supporting and advising the Customer on job interviews, negotiating and choosing job positions; and

    providing the customer with support from the beginning of his/her job search until the first day he/she starts his/her full-time job or part-time job or contract placement, that pays over £24,000 pro-rata annually including all benefits, contractual bonuses, tips and other remuneration;

In order to be eligible to sign up to and continue to obtain access to the Bootcamp and additional Career Support Services support until they are hired, the Customer shall:

    be legally eligible to work;

    not fail background checks conducted by prospective employers or Mastered;

    attend 85% of Mentor Sessions during the Bootcamp(s) they have signed up to. Failure to attend two consecutive Mentor Sessions shall entitle Mastered to terminate the provision of the Bootcamp without notice;

    attend the Career Agent Sessions. Failure to attend two consecutive Career Agent Sessions shall entitle Mastered to terminate the provision of the Career Support Services without notice;

    make reasonable efforts to implement recommendations, advice and guidance provided through the Mentor Sessions and Career Support Services; and

    submit at least four job applications within every 30 days during Phase 2 of the Bootcamp.

In the event that a Customer reasonably fails to complete the work set during Mentor Sessions and Career Agent Sessions, or fails to attend sessions on more than one consecutive occasion, Mastered in its sole and absolute discretion has the right to suspend or terminate the supply of Bootcamp and Career Agent Services, and its Support Until Hired service. At this point, full and outstanding fees will become due immediately, as described in Section 10, and any sums already paid in respect of such Bootcamp and/or Career Support Services shall not be refundable.

Mastered makes no guarantees or representations that Career Support Services and Support Until Hired will for certain result in the Customer being employed.

Ancillary services

Mastered makes available to Customers additional services provided by Technical Mentor partners and third parties ("Ancillary Services"). Ancillary Services are optional services which may or may not be subject to the payment of additional fees to the third party providers.

Ancillary Services are provided at the discretion of the relevant third party provider.

Mastered shall have no liability in respect of the provision of Ancillary Services.

In respect of opportunities published on the Website or via Third Party Platforms, the Customer acknowledges and agrees that these opportunities are provided by third parties and are not vetted or approved by Mastered. Mastered gives no representation or warranty about the suitability of any opportunity or its legitimacy. Customers are advised to exercise appropriate caution when taking up any opportunity. In particular, Mastered is not acting as a recruitment agent and shall have no liability with regards to the form or content of any job or placement opportunity published on the Website.

The Customer acknowledges and agrees that membership discounts and software licences are provided by third parties and are not contractual entitlements. Any discount or licence may be withdrawn or amended at any time by the third party and Mastered makes no representations and has no liability in respect of any discount or membership benefit.

Mastered events

Customers may be invited to attend events organised by Mastered, third parties or through the Mastered network.

Attendance at these events is not guaranteed and may incur additional expenses.

Mastered shall have no liability in respect of any loss or harm suffered by any Customer at an event organised by a third party or through Mastered’s network. Mastered limits liability to the fullest extent in respect of any event organised by Mastered and Customer's attention is drawn to the limitation of liability provisions at clause 20.

You acknowledge and agree that Mastered may video and photograph its events and events arranged through Mastered’s network and that Mastered may publish such content on any Forum. By attending any event you irrevocably agree to being so photographed and consent to the use of such images by Mastered on any Forum.

Customer's obligations

The Customer shall:

    cooperate with Mastered in all matters relating to the Bootcamp(s);

    provide Mastered with such information and materials as Mastered may reasonably require in order to supply the Bootcamp(s) and/or Career Support Services, and ensure that such information is accurate in all material respects; and

    comply at all times with the Mastered code of conduct obligations as set out in clause 7.2.

Customers must abide by the following non-exhaustive code of conduct in this clause, which shall apply both when participating in Bootcamps in any capacity and when using the Website. Customers must:

    comply with applicable law in the UK and in any country from which they are accessing the Website and/or Bootcamp;

    not threaten, abuse or invade the privay of another Member, Mastered employee, Technical Mentor's or Coach, or cause annoyance, inconvenience or needless anxiety;

    not harass, upset, embarrass, alarm or annoy any other Member, Mastered employee, Technical Mentor or Coach;

    not impersonate any person, misrepresent his/her identity or affiliation with any person;

    not make a contribution in Bootcamps or post Content that:

      contains any material which is defamatory of any person;
      contains any material which is obscene, offensive, hateful or inflammatory;
      promotes sexually explicit material (other than where permitted by Mastered in writing in advance);
      promotes violence;
      promotes discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation or age;
      infringes any copyright, database right or trade mark of any other person;
      is likely to deceive any person;
      promotes any illegal activity; and/or
      gives the impression that they emanate from Mastered, if this is not the case.

If any of the provisions listed in clause 7.2 are breached by a User, Mastered shall have the sole and absolute right to:

    immediately terminate that User's Contract (where applicable) without any right to a refund;

    immediately refuse that User access to the Website on a temporary or permanent basis; and

    take any action that Mastered deems appropriate.

If Mastered's performance of any of its obligations under the Contract is prevented or delayed by any act or omission by the Customer or failure by the Customer to perform any relevant obligation (a "Customer Default"):

    Mastered shall without limiting its other rights or remedies have the right to suspend the supply of the Bootcamp until the Customer remedies the Customer Default, and to rely on the Customer Default to relieve it from the performance of any of its obligations to the extent the Customer Default prevents or delays Mastered's performance of any of its obligations;

    Mastered shall not be liable for any costs or losses sustained or incurred by the Customer arising directly or indirectly from Mastered's failure or delay to perform any of its obligations as set out in this clause 7; and

    the Customer shall reimburse Mastered on written demand for any costs or losses sustained or incurred by Mastered arising directly or indirectly from the Customer Default.

Charges and payment

Mastered shall invoice the Customer immediately upon the Customer placing an Order. Where a Customer places an Order for a Bootcamp or access to Career Support Services, payment of the invoice must be received by Mastered either:

    where the Customer elects to take advantage of a Payment Plan in accordance with the terms of the Payment Plan;

    where the Customer elects to take advantage of third-party finance options, immediately on placing an Order; or

    otherwise immediately on placing an Order.

All amounts payable by the Customer under the Contract are inclusive of amounts in respect of value added tax chargeable for the time being ("VAT").

If the Customer fails to make any payment due to Mastered under the Contract by the due date for payment, Mastered has the right (but not the obligation) to charge the Customer, and the Customer shall pay:

    interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% per cent per annum above HSBC's base rate from time to time; and

    an administration fee of £25.

Such interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. The Customer shall pay the interest together with the overdue amount.

The Customer shall pay all amounts due under the Contract in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (except for any deduction or withholding required by law). Mastered may at any time, without limiting its other rights or remedies, set off any amount owing to it by the Customer against any amount payable by Mastered to the Customer.

Time for payment shall be of the essence of the Contract.

Payment Plans and Payments

The Customer may have the option to pay for certain Bootcamp(s) and/or Career Support Services:

    in-full on or before 14 days of the Bootcamp Start Date.

    by using Mastered’s Payment Plan. This Payment Plan will only be available at Mastered’s sole and absolute discretion. Mastered will provide the Customer with a breakdown of the amounts payable by the Customer when the Customer enters into the Contract. For the avoidance of doubt, a Payment Plan is not a form of finance or loan; or

    by using a third-party lender ("Bootcamp Finance Partner") approved by Mastered. For the avoidance of doubt:

      a Customer’s relationship or/and agreement with the Bootcamp Finance Partner shall be completely separate to their relationship or/and Contract with Mastered;
      Mastered will have no liability in regard to the agreement or/and relationship between a Customer and the Bootcamp Finance Partner; and
      Mastered’s approval of a Bootcamp Finance Partner shall not be deemed as Mastered providing advice to a Customer on loans or approving (or commenting) on the terms that the Bootcamp Finance Provider will provide finance to the Customer;

If a Customer terminates their agreement or arrangement with a Bootcamp Finance Partner, this does not terminate the Customer’s obligation to pay the fees due under the Contract which may become immediately payable on termination of such agreement or arrangement.

A Customer may cancel a Mastered Payment Plan within 10 days after entering into the Payment Plan. Cancellation after this 10-day period does not terminate the Customer's obligations to pay the fees due under the Contract which would become immediately payable on termination of the Payment Plan unless agreed otherwise with Mastered.

If an instalment due in accordance with the Mastered Payment Plan or Pay When Hired Plan has not been paid, Mastered shall be permitted to try to take the payment a further time and charge an administration fee in respect of its costs in respect of the failed payment.

In the event that the instalment is not paid within 14 days of the due date, Mastered may terminate the Mastered Payment Plan or Pay When Hired Plan at which point all sums due under the Mastered Payment Plan or Pay When Hired Plan (including any interest for late payments) will become immediately repayable to Mastered.

In the event that an instalment is outstanding under the Mastered Payment Plan or Pay When Hired Plan, Mastered may in its sole and absolute discretion elect to suspend or terminate the availability of the Bootcamp and/or Career Support Services. In the event that Mastered elects to terminate the Bootcamp and/or access to Career Support Services, any sums already paid in respect of such Bootcamp and/or Career Support Services shall not be refundable.

For avoidance of doubt, termination of a Mastered Payment Plan or Pay When Hired Plan shall not entitle the Customer to terminate the Contract. In the event of termination of a Mastered Payment Plan or Pay When Hired Plan (and absent termination of the Bootcamp and/or access to Career Support Services by Mastered in its sole and absolute discretion) the balance of fees due under the Contract shall be payable.

Where the Customer has agreed to a Pay When Hired Plan provided by the Bootcamp Finance Partner, the amount repayable or/and obligations in the event of a drop out, pausing or cancellation by the Customer will be dictated by the terms of the agreement signed between the Bootcamp Finance Partner and the Customer.

Cancellation and Pausing

Under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 (as amended) Customers who place an Order in the capacity of a consumer do not have the right to cancel any Bootcamp purchased because the Bootcamp provided by Mastered constitutes the supply of services related to leisure activities which have a specific date and/or period of performance.

For this reason, Mastered does not offer an automatic refund of the fees for a Bootcamp in the event that a Customer wishes to cancel after the intial cancellation period has expired. This reflects a variety of factors which are dependent on the type of Bootcamp purchased. These factors include (but are not limited to):

    Where access to the Mastered community and/or platform is part of the Bootcamp, as soon as reasonably practicable after Customers have signed up for a Bootcamp, Mastered will provide them with access to the Mastered community and platform and commence provision of certain of its valuable services;

    Where a Bootcamp has limited places or requires certain goods or services to be tailored or booked for each attendee, Mastered commences booking and/or tailoring the goods and services as soon as reasonably practicable after Customers have signed up for a Bootcamp.

Customers may cancel their participation in an Bootcamp in accordance with the following:

Date on which the notice of cancellation is received by Mastered Amount of refund due in relation to the full price at the time of purchase
Within 10 days of placing an Order ("Contract Start Date") 100% refund
Within 14 days after the Bootcamp Start Date 100% refund
Outside of 14 days after the Bootcamp Start Date 0% refund

In the event of a refund being issued, funds will be returned to the source payment method used in the initial transaction. If the original payment originated from multiple sources, each source will have the appropriate proportion returned. If the amount of fees paid as at the date of cancellation is less than the percentage of the total fees which Mastered is entitled to retain, the Customer will be required to pay the balance to Mastered.

Joining the bootcamp is a commitment to searching for a full-time permanent job. During the period, Mastered and the Bootcamp Finance Partner will invest in the Customer to aid their job search. In the event that a Customer cancels their participation after 14 days of the Bootcamp Start Date, the full and any outstanding payments for the Bootcamp as stated on the Landing Page become due, irrespective of the salary of the Customer. For the avoidance of doubt, full and all outstanding fees will become due immediately, when the Customer decides to:

    no longer look for full-time or part-time work;

    no longer look for full-time or part-time work in sectors or industries related to the technical training;

    work as a self-employed, freelance, or gig worker;

    setup, launch or operate their own business, company or service; or

    drop out of the Bootcamp for any reason.

    fail to make reasonable efforts to participate in the Bootcamp.

A Customer may cancel their participation in the Bootcamp and receive a credit note in respect of some or all of the fees to be used on other Bootcamps in the future if the consent of Mastered is obtained (such consent to be given in Mastered's sole and absolute discretion) where during the first twelve (12) weeks of the Bootcamp, the Customer is unable to participate in the Bootcamp due to a serious illness suffered by the Customer as evidenced by a medical note issued by a registered GP which states that the Customer's illness prevents him/her from learning online for more than 20 hours per week.

If a Customer wishes to cancel a Bootcamp in accordance with this clause, the customer must notify Mastered in writing. Mastered's decision under this clause shall be final.

Once the Bootcamp has started, it is not permitted for the Customer to pause, take a break or temporarily cease participation in the Bootcamp and to no longer be actively looking for work. In the event that a Customer opts to pause their participation, Mastered has the right to suspend, permanently or otherwise, providing Bootcamp and Career Search Services, and for full and outstanding fees to be due immediately, with no sums already paid to be refundable.

Mastered reserves the right not to process an order for a Bootcamp if:

    the Bootcamp is fully booked;

    you are not eligible to take part in the Bootcamp;

    the Bootcamp has been or is going to be cancelled;

    the Bootcamp was listed at the incorrect price; or

    in Mastered's sole and absolute discretion, decides that the Customer is not suitable for the Bootcamp.

If Mastered does not process your order for any of the above reasons, Mastered will notify you by e-mail and will refund to your account any sum deducted by us from your credit/debit card.

Mastered reserves the right to cancel any live event, and Mastered shall not be responsible for any loss resulting from the cancellation. For the avoidance of doubt, this includes but is not limited to, loss of earnings and loss of monies for any transport or accommodation costs.

The cancellation criteria in clause 10.2 and 10.3 do not apply to any deferred enrolment.
