When booking on the WFC SLA Online system, there is an option to email course details to the delegate. Please select this option which acts as your confirmation of the booking. When booking places on multiple courses, these can all be "checked out" of your shopping basket at the same time, using the same purchase order number. There is no need to check each course out separately (unless you wish to use different order numbers).
School Development will also send out an email reminder one week before courses are due to take place.
