Policies
Age restrictions
The majority of adult education classes provide a range of learning opportunities for adults from the age of 18 years, unless otherwise specified.
Disability and Special Needs
Libraries Tasmania is committed to achieving open and equitable access to and participation in a range of adult education programs and courses. If you have a disability or a medical condition which impacts on your ability to participate in an adult education course, please complete the Special Needs Form below or contact the adult education team. This will help us to make the necessary adjustments to maximise your enjoyment and experience in your chosen course. All enquiries are confidential.
Please note that carers supporting learners with disabilities can attend our classes free of charge. Please contact us for more information.
Personal Belongings
We request that you do not bring valuables with you during your course and ask that you take care of all personal belongings in a responsible manner and do not leave them unattended at any time. We cannot assume responsibility for the loss of any personal belongings during your course at any of our venues.
Cancellations and refunds
Please choose your course carefully. A full refund is payable in the event that a class is cancelled. No other refunds are considered except for extenuating circumstances which are supported by a written application. When we cancel a course, we aim to give at least 5 working days' notice prior to the scheduled start date.
