section II -
Services and Client Engagement
5. Educational Services
Bump Bench LLC provides instructional design services, learning experiences, educational resources, instructional materials, and licensed frameworks intended to support understanding, planning, organization, and AI-assisted work.
Unless otherwise stated in a separate written agreement, all services are provided for educational and instructional purposes.
6. Scheduling, Reservations, and Participation
Certain services require advance scheduling, reservation of meeting space, preparation of instructional materials, or coordination with third-party venues.
Reservations are confirmed only after any required payment, deposit, or written confirmation has been received.
Clients are responsible for arriving prepared for scheduled learning experiences and for providing any information reasonably requested before the session.
7. Private Learning Experiences
Private learning experiences, including Private AI Pairing Tables™, are scheduled specifically for the individual client or invited participants.
Preparation may begin before the scheduled session, including instructional planning, resource development, venue coordination, and customization of materials.
Because preparation often occurs before the scheduled experience, cancellation and rescheduling may be subject to the policies outlined elsewhere in these Terms or in a separate written agreement.
8. Hosted Learning Experiences
Hosted learning experiences may include reserved seating, scheduled group sessions, or privately hosted events.
Participation is limited to the individuals registered or invited for the scheduled experience.
Bump Bench LLC reserves the right to modify scheduling, instructors, locations, or learning activities when reasonably necessary.
9. Concierge Instruction Set™
The Concierge Instruction Set™ is a structured instructional design service that may include analysis, instructional planning, written deliverables, educational resources, and related learning materials.
Each engagement is tailored to the individual client, project, or organization based on the agreed scope of work.
Unless specifically stated in writing, deliverables are educational resources and instructional materials rather than guarantees of business, operational, financial, or regulatory outcomes.
10. Changes to Services
Bump Bench LLC may revise, expand, discontinue, or update services, learning experiences, instructional materials, or related resources as business needs, technology, legal requirements, or instructional practices evolve.
These changes do not affect obligations established under previously executed written agreements unless both parties agree otherwise in writing.
section III -
Payments, Cancellations, and Deliverables
11. Payments
Payment is due according to the terms provided at the time of purchase, reservation, proposal, invoice, or written agreement.
Unless otherwise stated in writing, services may require payment in advance to reserve dates, prepare instructional materials, or confirm participation.
Failure to submit required payment may result in cancellation or rescheduling of the service.
12. Reservations and Scheduling
Some services require advance preparation, venue reservations, customized instructional materials, or scheduling with third-party providers.
A reservation is considered confirmed only after any required payment or written confirmation has been received.
Bump Bench LLC will make reasonable efforts to accommodate requested scheduling changes; however, availability cannot be guaranteed.
13. Cancellations and Rescheduling
Cancellation and rescheduling requests should be submitted as soon as reasonably possible.
Because many services involve advance planning, instructional design, preparation of customized materials, or reserved venues, cancellation fees or limitations may apply once preparation has begun.
Specific cancellation or rescheduling terms provided in a proposal, invoice, reservation confirmation, or separate written agreement will control when applicable.
14. Delivery of Instructional Materials
Instructional materials, learning resources, written deliverables, and licensed frameworks may be provided during a scheduled learning experience or through another delivery method agreed upon in writing.
Delivery methods may include in-person distribution, digital delivery, or shipment of printed materials, depending on the service purchased.
Clients are responsible for maintaining copies of materials provided unless otherwise stated in writing.
15. Client Responsibilities
Clients are responsible for:
-
Providing accurate information needed to support the agreed services.
-
Reviewing instructional materials before implementing them.
-
Maintaining access to any required technology, software, or AI platform used during their own work.
