Schedule of Fees 	
The standard fee schedule for public access courses and programs from 1 January 2012 is as follows:

•	A Registration Fee of $9.00 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 $9.00 per billing point	

    =    254/5

    =    50.8

    =    51

    =    $459

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 $9.00 per billing point	

    =    10

    =    10/5

    =    2.0

    =    2

    =    $18
