FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do you have another question? Don't hesitate to contact us at info@ecolebranchee.com
There are 3 issues per year: Fall (September), Winter (December) and Spring (April). The date of your order will determine the starting number of your subscription: the digital subscription starts with the current issue, while the print subscription will start with the next issue (see the specific conditions for magazines above). Shipping is done only after full payment, as soon as the first issue is available. You can also get back issues through our Online Store.
The link is sent by email the day before a CréaCamp SPRINT or the same day of a CréaCamp Discovery to all registered participants whose email address we have. If you've signed up someone else, be sure to pass the info on to them! You will also find an access button on the training page in question on our site.
No problem! You must first go through our online store. Add the desired subscription and/or issue(s) to your "shopping cart", then choose the payment method "By check" (in Canada only). You will then automatically receive a numbered, addressed invoice with an email copy. The subscription or the shipment of the order will be done upon receipt of payment only.
To reduce processing time, issue your order form, then use our Online Store to make your order. When entering your billing details, you will see an “Order Notes” box in which you can enter the purchase order number. In this way, you will produce your invoice yourself (you will receive a copy by email, including the associated purchase order number), which you can forward according to the usual procedure for payment.
