Registration & Enrolment

To apply for any TLI program or individual module, each candidate must complete an application form. A current Curriculum Vitae (CV) is required of each candidate at the time of application.

Upon receipt of the candidate's completed application and approval by TLI, an acceptance letter will be issued to the candidate's email address provided. A tuition invoice, program schedule, and pre-program information will also be included in the admission packet.

TLI strongly encourages candidates to apply as early as possible to secure their preferred program dates.

NOTICE: TLI reserves the right to cancel or postpone any program if the number of candidates is insufficient. TLI will notify each registered candidate of the cancellation in sufficient time prior to the starting date of the program. In the event that TLI cancels a program, TLI will refund any monies paid towards tuition but will not be responsible for any costs associated with preparation for attendance (e.g., transportation, accommodation, etc.)

Certification Requirements

Upon successful completion of any program, each participant will be awarded a Certificate of Completion. Successful completion requires that a participant:

  • Diligently attend all program sessions, including practical exercises, promptly at the scheduled time from the first day through the last day

  • Complete all assignments and required readings

  • Participate actively in all group discussions and practical exercises

  • Meet minimum attendance requirements (85% minimum)

Deposit Refund Policy:

  • The deposit is refundable up to five business days before the program start date
