  Schedule of Fees and Concessions 	
The standard fee schedule for public access courses and programs from 1 January 2010 is as follows:
A Registration Fee of $8.13 per registered ‘billing point’
Billing points are calculated as follows:
•	The ‘billing hours’ value currently associated with each course in the CATALOG module is divided by five (5).
•	The result of this division is rounded-up to the next whole number to determine the billing points for that program.
•	For very short courses a minimum billing point value of two (2) will be applied.
The following examples show how billing points and fees are calculated for some typical CIT courses:	
Example 1:       A course with 254 billing hours:
Divide billing hours by five

Billing Points  
Multiplied by $8.13 per billing point	
    =    254/5
    =    50.8
    =    51
    =    $414.63	
Example 2:        A course with 6 billing hours:
Apply the minimum value to billing hours
Divide adjusted billing hours by five  

Billing Points  
Multiplied by $8.13 per billing point	
    =    10
    =    10/5
    =    2.0
    =    2
    =    $16.26
