Cancellation of the certification exam  

Refund policy

If you are no longer able to proceed with the certification exam, you may apply for a refund.  To do so, please put your request in writing and submit a request to https://support.pieronline.org/, including the following information:

- Your full name  

- Your username (PIER account registration email address)  

- receipt number (if known)  

IMPORTANT:  You will be subject to an administration fee of $50 AUD.  This will be deducted from the amount that you paid for the certification exam fee.  

Please note that for any purchases of the EATC e-book package, there are no refunds on the e-book portion of the cost. Refunds will only be processed on the examination fee itself.  

If you have proceeded with the exam ie undertaken/attempted it, no refund is available.

Any refund requests received by PIER will be processed within 7 business days of confirmation by PIER that a refund can be approved.   Refunds can only be issued up to twelve (12) months after the initial payment. The monies will be refunded to the credit card that was used to make payment.  It may take several days for the amount to reach your account.  Please allow for this time before contacting PIER for a status update.

Refunds can only be processed back to the credit card from which the original purchase was made. 

If your certification exam booking is cancelled by PIER, the cost of your QEAC certification exam fee will be refunded in full. PIER reserves the right to cancel exam bookings at any time.  

Please note that it is not necessary to apply for a refund of your certification exam fee if you simply wish to defer your examination.  You may postpone your examination for a reasonable amount of time at PIER's discretion.
