Service Level:
Global Knowledge Technologies endeavours to provide access to the Virtual Classroom Live learning environment for live class access. Given the nature of local network performance conditions and the Internet in general, Global Knowledge Technologies cannot assure and makes no warranty that access to the Virtual Classroom Live environment will be without interruption. In all cases, the Global Knowledge Technologies help desk will support students who have technical/performance issues.

Client Virtual Platform Use:
In some instances, a client will request to have their private training class delivered on their internal synchronous learning platform. In these cases it is the client's responsibility to provide adequate licenses, event setup and technical support, as well as basic training/instructions for the Global Knowledge Technologies instructor. In all cases, the client is prohibited from loading Global Knowledge Technologies training content into the client platform. In addition, due to intellectual property restrictions, the client is prohibited from recording the training event via their platform. Client's enrolled students are not to share access to the training event(s) with others; the training event(s) and access to any recordings of such event(s) provided by Global Knowledge Technologies and Client shall be solely for their individual students' use. Global Knowledge Technologies has the right to audit the daily student roster to validate student attendance. The Global Knowledge Technologies Virtual Classroom Live guarantee will not apply if a client platform is used, because the client platform may not support certain class functionality and desired student learning experience.

Phone fees:
Some courses and training programs feature highly interactive lab and classroom work that requires frequent collaboration with other class members best suited to telephone communication. Course audio may be delivered via telephone during these lab and classroom collaboration hours. To reduce unexpected charges, be aware of your individual cell phone plans and minutes allowed. Phone service provider charges will not be paid by Global Knowledge Technologies .

An optional window is available every Sunday between 3:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. IST and can be used for general system maintenance. This window is used approximately once per quarter. Major software upgrades/releases are performed approximately once per year and often require a larger upgrade window.

These backups are scheduled on a daily basis to ensure data integrity and overall system performance.

Service Interruptions:
If it becomes necessary for Global Knowledge Technologies to schedule additional maintenance that may cause system interruptions outside of the regularly scheduled maintenance time and a customer has provided a designated Administrative Contact, Global Knowledge Technologies will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide prior notification of such interruptions to the customer's designated Administrative Contact in the form of a "News Flash."

Service Availability Definition:
Service availability is defined as the amount of time (excluding scheduled maintenance downtime) Global Knowledge Technologies Learning is available and capable of providing service, and it varies by product. Service availability for a given month is calculated as a percentage equal to [(number of minutes the service is available in the month less the number of minutes of scheduled downtime during the month) / (total number of minutes in the month less the number of minutes of scheduled downtime during the month)]. Service is deemed "available" if all matters within the control of Global Knowledge Technologies or its agents necessary to make the service available are in place and are in working order. Availability of any service or product delivered by use of the Internet or other internetworking technologies is also dependent on many factors out of the control of Global Knowledge Technologies , including but not limited to interruptions to the Internet, interruptions in phone service, interruptions in service by customer's Internet Service Provider or other interruptions in service caused by matters outside of the control of Global Knowledge Technologies or its agents.

Customer Feedback:
If you feel that Global Knowledge Technologies has not provided the level of service you expect, you may email a complaint to  quality.assurance@globalknowledgetech.com GKT will respond in writing within five business days of receipt of any formal complaint. If upon receipt of such a complaint, Global Knowledge Technologies 's service logs indicate that during a one-month period including the period specified in the complaint, the service availability has not exceeded 99 percent, customer may receive a refund representing 50 percent of license fees paid by customer for the month in question. Should service availability drop below 99 percent for any three consecutive months or for four months within a one-year period, customer may terminate its license and receive a refund of all pre-paid license fees for any remaining term on customer's license.
