Book Early...
and Save!
For clarity, the cost of a CELTA course is broken down into two parts:
1.The CELTA course fee (£1,747) is the fee for taking the course at IH London, inclusive of all materials and tuition.
2.The Cambridge fee (£186) goes towards the qualification body, Cambridge.
Both fees are payable to IH London.
BUT, if you book your course within 10 days of receiving a course offer, we will pay the £186 Cambridge fee for you. So, get organised and save money!
