Re-enrolment of the CIR after 12 months
Candidates must sit the exam within 12 months of registration. After 12 months, a fee to re-enrol of £100+VAT will apply. This may include receiving an updated study guide.
Transfer of CIR/ICIR registration to another person
Where an employer has directly funded the CIR/ICIR registration fee, the registration may be transferred to another individual within the same organisation. Any transfer must take place within 12 months of the original registration date. An administrative fee of £200 will be payable at the point of transfer. Transfers are not permitted if the original candidate has attempted the examination.
In exceptional circumstances, and at the Society's discretion, a transfer of CIR/ICIR registration may be allowed without charge or beyond the 12-month period. Examples of exceptional circumstances include but are not limited to: redundancy, maternity leave, long-term sickness.
CIR revision course payment
Payment is required in full either at the time of booking or 30 days from the invoice date, unless the date of the event falls within 30 days, in which case the invoice should be settled before attendance. We regret we cannot accept attendees on courses if full payment has not been received.
CIR revision course transfers
If you wish to transfer your course booking to a later date, you will need to provide a minimum of 14 days' notice in order to avoid a fee. If you wish to make a transfer within 14 days of a course date, an administration charge of 25% of the course cost will apply.

Exam resits
An administration charge of £50 + VAT will be invoiced to re-sit the exam. You have 12 months to sit your exam upon receiving your study materials. After 12 months, a fee to re-enrol of £100+VAT will apply, this will give you a further 12 months of study.
CIR revision course cancellations by the IR Society
The IR Society has the right to cancel a course. In this event, the IR Society will reimburse any course fees paid. The IR Society reserves the right to alter course dates or venues without liability. We will endeavour to give delegates as much notice as possible of any changes. If the delegate is not able to attend the revised date/ location, we will give a credit of 100% of the course costs against a future cost or refund any course fees already paid. As a course may be cancelled up to two weeks prior to its start date, we recommend that delegates do not make travel/accommodation arrangements before this time. Any travel costs incurred are entirely the delegate's responsibility and the IR Society does not accept any liability for re-imbursement of travel/accommodation costs.
Disclaimer: We are always working to make our courses as topical and relevant as possible and therefore reserve the right to alter course content and / or tutors due to circumstances beyond our control.
