Preface:

In this section we explain all the consequences of your participation in the system and what determines and governs the benefits of membership packages in addition to the requirements and obligations of the service provider and the subscriber in the system, so we hope that all members who subscribe or want to join us to be familiar with the terms and conditions of the membership system.

Explanation of some of the words contained in the terms and conditions:

 

What is the membership system?

Is a system that allows its members to take advantage of several educational services offered by the Virtual Medical Academy by subscribing to one of the membership packages available for a fixed fee.

 

Period of the Membership:

The membership period valid from the date of subscription until the full calendar year (365 days).

Membership allows subscribers to benefit from the package they subscribe to.

 

Membership System Feature:

The main advantage of the membership system is the ability to purchase unlimited educational services over an entire year, as well as other benefits according to the package chosen by the subscriber.

The value of the educational services available to you in the membership system will be more than the amount you will pay as a package price. This is an important feature provided by the system to its members.


Basic Service Pillars:

The basic service provided to you at the time of subscription is unlimited access to the content of the Academy library. (courses, lectures, and recorded scientific programs) which are currently in the list below (http://www.medicalacademy.org/portal/vma/classes) or those that we will add in the future in the library without any additional fees.

Also, each package of membership packages has its own features, as well as other features that include all or some of the bundles, including but not limited to “ unlimited access to library content, free online courses and lectures, free certificates, permanent discounts, and special rates, membership gifts, partner discounts, special invitations to participate in events before the public announcement ... etc”

 

Subscription:

Anyone who has an account in the Virtual Medical Academy can subscribe to the membership system. Also, those who do not have an account in the Virtual Medical Academy may create an account free of charge in order to subscribe to the system, the requirements of creating a new account is simple. It is to fill in your data to create an account, "Name" /"Specialty"/ email ... and other data, through the following page: (http://www.medicalacademy.org/portal/register-step1 ).

 

Your subscription to a paid package means:

Purchase of access to the library of the Academy only during the period of subscription, does not mean that you own any of the materials or features provided. We announce that all services and other features that are not entitled to access to the library are add-on services and are not included in the subscription fee. This results in the right of the Virtual Medical Academy to cancel it or not to provide it for any reason and notify the members by email.

 

Subscription fee: 

Subscription fees vary according to the package to be subscribed. Four packages are currently available as follows:

Subscription fees are fixed and no additional charges are required from the member during the subscription period. 

 

Upgrade package:

All members can upgrade the subscription from either the free package to one of the paid packages or from one paid package to higher paid packages. 

When requesting a package upgrade, the fee of the first package must be paid if the member package is the free package, If the member package is the first package, the member must pay the difference between the two packages.

In order to upgrade from the first package (with a fee of 2746.2 SAR annually), the member must pay the difference between the lower package and the higher package (with a fee of 3713.235 SAR annually), ie 3713.235 - 2746.2 = 967 SAR. Also, Membership cannot be transferred from a higher package to a lower package after 7 days of subscription.

 

Renew subscription:

Your subscription will be renewed automatically at the end of each year.  

Please Make sure from the followings:

- Always keep your billing information updated to avoid billing failures for the subscription and to ensure we charge the correct card. If auto-renewal failed, your membership plan will be downgraded to a free plan within 7 days.

- If you don't want the subscription to continue, you must cancel it before the end of the period to avoid being charged for the next subscription period.
