Application fees
- There is no separate application fee for admission to the state‑funded professional (vocational/professional secondary) programmes at the school.
Tuition fees by programme / year group (full detail)
- State‑financed professional education (professional secondary programmes, modular professional programmes): tuition for those programmes is charged at EUR 0.00 (no tuition fee). This applies where the programme is provided under the state‑funded arrangements described in the school's statutory fee schedule.
- Professional and modular programme specifics: professional‑secondary programmes and modular programme modules are listed with a contract price of EUR 0.00 for standard programme delivery (i.e., no tuition charge for the listed state‑funded programme categories). For programme length and credit/academic‑hour basis, the school follows the published programme definitions and the fee schedule.
- Adult, professional‑development and non‑formal (paid) courses: fees vary by programme and are charged as specified for each course. Example published fees for recent courses:
- SketchUp non‑formal course (33 academic hours): EUR 400.00 (total course fee).
- Biškopība (beekeeping) course: EUR 800.00 (total course fee).
- “Prasmes kokizstrādājumu izgatavošanā” course: EUR 360.00 (total course fee).
- Short module example: EIKT / security module listed at EUR 31.50 (per module/course listing).
Fees for adult/non‑formal programmes are stated per programme (total course fee) or per academic hour where noted; individual course pages and the school's fee schedule state the precise basis for each programme.
Tuition‑calculation by term / billing periods
- For state‑funded professional‑programme tuition (where a fee would apply), the municipality/school calculates and invoices tuition on the programme basis defined in municipal rules: professional‑programme tuition is generally calculated for the programme period (for example, counted as 9 months per calendar year for certain vocational streams or for the programme implementation period as specified). In practice, state‑funded professional programmes listed in the school's fee schedule show a price of EUR 0.00. For paid programmes, the school issues fees according to the course listing (full programme price or per‑hour basis as indicated).
Billing schedule and payment terms
- Monthly invoicing: the local municipal billing practice for school tuition and paid programmes requires the municipality's Finance Department to prepare an electronic invoice by the 15th day of each month for the previous month's tuition; that invoice is sent to the contract email address specified in the enrolment or service agreement. Payment must be made to the account and by the due date shown on the invoice.
- Consequence of non‑payment: an enrollee or service recipient may be removed from the programme if tuition remains unpaid for three consecutive months during the programme implementation period.
- Discounts and exemptions: the school's fee schedule and municipal rules specify discounts and exemptions (for example, full exemption or reductions for eligible categories and a 30% discount for certain professional continuing‑education, professional‑development and non‑formal programmes for the school's own students and staff where applicable). Specific discount rules are applied per the fee schedule.

Photocopying/printing and other small facility charges are listed with per‑unit prices. Refer to course or service listings for precise per‑hour/per‑unit amounts.
Refunds / adjustments and special cases
- Medical absence adjustment: when a student is justifiedly absent for more than three consecutive weeks (with a medical certificate), tuition for one month need not be paid for that month. This is a specific adjustment rule in the municipal payment rules.
- Non‑payment and course removal: an enrollee may be removed from a programme if tuition is unpaid for three consecutive months.
- Course‑specific refund/withdrawal terms: paid adult and non‑formal courses list their course fee and registration conditions on each programme page; individual course pages set the terms for registration deadlines, group formation and payment. For example, the SketchUp course lists the total course fee and the registration deadline. Refund or cancellation conditions for specific paid courses are stated on the individual course page or in the course application form.
Fee payment options and invoicing details

Example published bank account details: Pašu ieņēmumu konts (for paid invoices) and Pamatbudžeta konts with IBANs published on the school's official contact/requisites page.

Short practical notes for parents

Parents should use the school's published account details and e‑invoice address when paying or when arranging invoicing.
