Discounts
A 10 percent discount on the course fee for regular-priced courses is granted to full-time/full-time students, the unemployed, pensioners, those on job alternation and care leave, those on rehabilitation support, and caregivers. The information entitling to the discount must be provided upon registration. The 10 percent discount is not granted to church-supported courses or day visitors.
By showing your course card, you can get a small discount on some of Tuohus' products and half-price admission to exhibitions and the museum.
We target the support we receive from the Finnish Orthodox Church to people under 35, who are an underrepresented group in icon courses, and we offer them a special 40 percent discount on all icon painting courses.
If you are attending several consecutive courses, it is worth inquiring about a tailored package offer.
Discount after three courses
When you have attended three regular-priced courses within 12 months, you will receive a 50 euro discount on the price of the next course. Each period of the Icon Line accrues a discount of one course. Courses supported by the church or courses offered at a reduced price do not accrue a discount.
Keep a record of your participation and state the three courses you have attended when registering. We will check the matter in the system and you will receive a discount. The benefit is valid from the end date of the last course of the year.
Cancellation conditions
When registering, the student agrees to comply with the following cancellation conditions:
The student can cancel the registration without costs no later than two weeks before the start date of the course. If the cancellation is made after this time, a 30 percent cancellation fee will be charged from the course fee. If no cancellation is made at all, the full course fee will be charged. Cancellation is made by email: myyntipalvelu(at)valamo.fi
If the cancellation is due to illness and the cancellation is made less than two weeks before the start of the course, the course fee can be refunded against a medical certificate.
Unpaid course fees will be handed over to a debt collection agency.
If the course is cancelled for reasons attributable to the institute, the course fee will be refunded or it can be transferred to another course. The institute has the right to change the program if necessary.
