    Just a question: I was charged $25 for this course. Your advert below says $20.  Why the difference in price??


    Thanks,

    Hi Jane,

    Please email the AIAU team at aiau@aia.org to request a refund and be sure to include the email address you used when you registered.. This is the first I've heard of a discrepancy between the advertised and actual price charged. 

    Thank you for telling me.

    Susan
