Taining Bond

(Posting this for a friend)

 

I have completed 2 years of a degree course. I was made to sign a training bond a the start of my first year which tied me in for two years. So if i left before the 2 years were up I would have to pay for the course.

 

I was never asked to sign a new bond for the 2nd year. The course is not funded by my employer and I have received funding for my third and final year. I have now been offered a new job within the same industry and have handed in my notice with my current employment. I have been made aware that my employer is going to take the full bond amount from my wages.

 

The bond i signed said it was to cover three terms. (1st year) but it also says in the event of failure to complete 12 months service post qualification. Now I wouldn't receive the full qualification until I have completed the 3rd year.

 

As my employer have not lost a penny because of my attending this course I don't believe they are entitled to take anything from my wages.

 

I would really appreciate any input into this.

 

I hope this makes sense

 

Added: Dont know if this is relevant but I have received my funding for my final year and I am going to complete it. Like i said before the funding isn't provided by my employer.
