Access to the Service will be provided only after the receipt of required Service fee mentioned against the Service on the website or conveyed through other means of written or oral communication.

In case of booking a Service (such as counselling), the fee payment should be made prior to receiving booking confirmation.

Cancellation of a service which has been already paid for is not allowed; however, if you wish to reschedule the use/delivery of the service, such as in the case of counselling, to a future date and time, you can follow the step-by-step process mentioned on the Website for the purpose. Rescheduling of a service is allowed only once; any attempt for further rescheduling will not be allowed.

Cancellation & Refund

Cancellation of the booking for a service will be considered only if the request is made within the stipulated time period, as specified on the Website against specific Services, post booking the service. However, the cancellation request will not be considered after the payment for the service. It is your responsibility to evaluate the usefulness and/or effectiveness of the service and decide whether the respective Service meet your requirements or not. When you decide to pay for the service, it is assumed that you have already evaluated the service and made an informed decision.

You agree and accept that payment once made for any service shall not be refundable, unless there is undue delay in service delivery or non-delivery. Temporary delay in delivery or non-delivery may happen due to disruptions in the delivery process caused by occasional system failure, power outages, extended downtime, scheduled or unscheduled maintenance, or updates. In such cases, the delivery will be rescheduled to a future date and time by CareerCAD‘s management team. However, it is your responsibility to intimate such events to the team via approved means of communication. However, despite such effort, if the delivery is further delayed or does not materialize, then you may request for a refund of the payment. The final decision to refund or not is the prerogative of CareerCAD management team.

Commitment fee or advance amount paid towards any services, such as placement services (for studies, vocational training or job in foriegn countries), will not be refunded, unless there is any failure or undue delay in service delivery. Undue delay is defined as later than 18 months. However, any failure from the service recipient to meet the conditions of eligibility, such as not securing required academic or extra academic certificates, etc., and integrity, such as not being honest in information provided, cheating, forgery, etc., will lead to automatic relinquishing of such commitment fee or advance amount.
