ECC, together with preferred suppliers Buddle Findlay, have developed a comprehensive Enrolment Agreement and Enrolment Advisory, available exclusively to members. This work was undertaken to assist service providers set up an enrolment scheme that provides clarity around cancelling enrolments, how to deal with ongoing absences of children with subsequent funding loss, unpaid fees, and other issues.
