When Fee Transparency Fails, Compliance Fails
Under Standard 2.1, financial information provided to prospective learners must be clear, accurate and current before enrolment occurs.
Yet most financial compliance risk does not arise from incorrect pricing.
It arises from:
-
Multiple versions of fee schedules in circulation
-
Website updates not reflected in enrolment packs
-
Agents quoting outdated pricing
-
Refund conditions explained verbally but not documented
If a learner disputes fees, the question is not what your policy says today.
It is whether you can prove what they were told at the time.
Fee transparency is not a marketing task. It is a governance control.
Can your organisation reconstruct exactly what financial information was issued to a student six months ago?
