From January 2023

CME learners must pay all fees before starting the course unless an instalment payment schedule is agreed upon.

All learners who apply for the CME must hold a current Hold a current Enhanced DBS/CRB, Access NI, Garda Vetting check, Criminal Record Check or Police Check from the country where they live (issued within the last 12 months). Candidates in the UK who do not have a current check can apply for one through Enact Music or the Musicians’ Union subject to an upfront payment. International applicants in countries where it is difficult to obtain a Criminal Record Check should discuss their situation with Enact Music Course Director.

All learners must complete the CME course within 24 months of registration date, except where there are proven exceptional circumstances. In approved cases learners will be allowed to continue the course at no extra cost. However, exceptional circumstances do not entitle learners to receive refund of the course fees. Where there are no proven exceptional circumstances, learners who do not complete the course within 24 months from the starting date, will have to pay a further £500 on top of the initial course fee for each subsequent year to avail of continued mentor support and assessment of their work, until the course is completed.

If a learner cancels their place on the course, after course fees have been paid, the cancellation terms below apply:

a) Cancellation immediately after fee payment but before the programme commences, there is a 10% cancellation fee.

b) Cancellation between course commencing and 1 month, there is a 25% cancellation fee.

c) Cancellation after 1 month, 100% cancellation fee.

All course work must be the sole work of the learner. Therefore copied or plagiarised material will not be accepted under any circumstances, unless appropriately acknowledged.

All CME modules and resources remain the property of Enact Music and content must not be used elsewhere without permission from the Course Director.

To comply with statutory requirements we may need to collect additional information from you during and after your course.

Course fees include the Enact Music's CME Guidebook. However, they do not include materials, equipment, books or other costs you may wish to incur.

We expect all learners and staff to actively promote mutual respect and challenge any form of discrimination or abuse. We reserve the right to exclude any learner who does not uphold this policy. In such case, no fee will be refunded.

Learners must have appropriate music performance skills, suited for the demands of their work environment.

Although our CME will have online educational provision, one-to-one online meetings with a mentor are necessary.

This notice describes what information Enact Music holds about you, why we hold it and how we use it. Data is any information which relates to you - the individual. Personal data is information which can identify you. An example of personal data is your full name, address and date of birth.

We process your information in order to exercise our duty to deliver music education to you.
