Empennage, thanks for that. Good to get a bit more information about it.
That said, the question I asked still stands. Is there any kind of legally-binding contract?
For example;
- are the company contractually obliged to offer you employment at the end of the course (subject to passing the appropriate checks)?
- are you contractually obliged to join Thomson at the end of the course should they offer such employment, or are you free to keep your own options open and go elsewhere if you wish?
Simple answers will be much appreciated. By the way, I'm not trying to knock it, any extra foothold in this industry (such as the liaison officer and access staff website) is A Good Thing. Especially if you're effectively getting it all for free, if it's the same price as a non-endorsed self-sponsored FTE course.
I'm merely interested (as, I suspect, are some others) in what each parties binding obligations actually are.
Thanks again.
Charley
