Mentorship Terms & Conditions
Cherry Academy | Cherry Beauty Bar
Last updated: 31 October 2026
These Terms & Conditions apply to Cherry Academy's in-person educational experiences, including The Atelier Half Day, The Atelier Full Day and Nail Mastery In-Person Training.
By enrolling in an in-person programme, you acknowledge the applicable booking, payment and participation conditions outlined below.
1. Booking & Payment
Cherry Academy offers upfront payment and selected instalment arrangements for its in-person training experiences.
Available payment options depend on the programme selected and are displayed at checkout.
The Atelier — Half Day & Full Day
Students may choose to pay in full or select an available payment plan.
For bookings made under the 50% deposit arrangement, the remaining balance must be paid in full no later than 7 calendar days before the scheduled mentorship, unless a different payment schedule was expressly agreed at enrolment.
Other available Atelier payment plans are subject to the specific instalment amounts, frequency and due dates disclosed at checkout.
Nail Mastery — In-Person Training Add-On
The Nail Mastery In-Person Training Add-On is available to eligible Nail Mastery Online students and is purchased separately from online enrolment.
The training investment is $2,997 AUD, payable either:
-
In full at checkout; or
-
Through two fortnightly payments of $1,498.50 AUD.
Under the two-payment arrangement, the first payment is charged at checkout and the final payment is scheduled 14 calendar days later.
The full training fee must be received at least 14 calendar days before the first scheduled training day.
Students selecting the instalment option must arrange training dates sufficiently in advance to allow the payment schedule to be completed.
General Payment Conditions
Payment secures enrolment in the selected programme, subject to the confirmation of training dates and any eligibility requirements.
Where payment remains outstanding beyond an agreed deadline, training may be postponed in accordance with the applicable booking terms and Australian Consumer Law.
Payment plans are governed by Cherry Academy's Purchase Options & Cancellation Policy, together with the payment schedule disclosed at checkout.
2. Scheduling
Following your purchase, you will receive access to the applicable onboarding materials and questionnaire.
Your mentorship or training dates will be confirmed once your completed questionnaire has been reviewed and mutually suitable dates have been arranged.
Training dates are subject to availability.
Purchasing a programme does not guarantee a particular training date unless that date has been expressly confirmed by Cherry Academy.
3. Rescheduling
Life happens, and reasonable rescheduling requests are understood.
Please provide at least 72 hours' notice if you need to reschedule your mentorship or training session.
Requests made with less than 72 hours' notice will be considered individually, taking into account the circumstances, preparation already undertaken, costs reasonably incurred and the availability of alternative dates.
Where a late rescheduling request results in reasonable, demonstrable costs to Cherry Academy, an appropriate rescheduling charge may apply if permitted by the applicable agreement and Australian Consumer Law.
Any applicable charge will be communicated before the rescheduled booking is confirmed.
Where Cherry Academy needs to reschedule a session, a suitable alternative will be discussed with the student, without limiting any statutory rights or remedies.
4. Cancellations & Refunds
Cherry Academy's private mentorship experiences involve individual preparation, reserved training time and programme-specific resources.
Students wishing to cancel their enrolment should contact Cherry Academy as soon as possible.
Cancellation and refund requests will be assessed in accordance with the applicable enrolment agreement, services already supplied, reasonable costs incurred and Australian Consumer Law.
A change of mind does not automatically entitle a student to a refund.
However, nothing in these terms excludes or restricts any refund, remedy or consumer guarantee available under Australian Consumer Law.
Where a student is entitled to a refund or other remedy under applicable law, that entitlement will be honoured.
If a student is unable to attend their scheduled training, Cherry Academy will consider reasonable rescheduling arrangements where appropriate.
5. Student Responsibilities
To ensure the best possible learning experience, students agree to:
-
Complete the onboarding questionnaire before their mentorship or training.
-
Arrive on time and prepared.
-
Communicate any relevant medical conditions, allergies, accessibility needs or learning requirements that may affect safe participation.
-
Participate respectfully throughout the training experience.
-
Follow reasonable health, safety and professional instructions during practical training.
-
Arrange suitable models where required and communicated in advance.

Depending on the programme, this may include practical education, demonstrations, course materials, professional kits, digital resources or post-training support.
Nail Mastery Online enrolment and the Nail Mastery In-Person Training Add-On are separate purchases.
