One company I worked for had what I think was a good policy on tuition (part of their CPD policy). Their view on any training/education/courses was:
1. If they felt you needed it (e.g. training on tools etc. - anything directly linked to work) then they paid, no quibbles. 2. If it was something like an MA etc (they paid for mine!) then it was looked at on merit. If it was seen as CPD and could be linked (often vaguely!) to your job then that was OK but with a proviso. If they paid and you subsequently left you became eligible for all/part of the cost on a sliding scale(depending on how soon afterwards you left) Damien Damien Braniff Sr. Technical Writer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Waterfront Plaza 8, Lagan Bank Road Belfast, N.
