Employees undertaking correspondence courses will be entitled to revision and exam leave. Employees who leave their employment before the end of a two year period after the date of completion of training will be required to reimburse an appropriate proportion of the fees attributable to their training, (i.e. leaving after one year, half of the training costs would be repayable). Short term training projects, such as one-day seminars, conferences and so on are excluded from the repayment arrangement.
