Agreements about pursuing training can be recorded in a so-called study agreement. This document describes the specific arrangements regarding the study. But what should you include? <\/p>\n\n
To reach sound and legally sustainable agreements, it is important to first determine whether there are specific rules or agreements that you must take into account.

And may homework for training be completed during working hours or not? And then, of course, the costs. Are these entirely at the employer’s expense, or must the employee also allocate their own budget? And what about travel costs to the training location and costs of (re)examinations? <\/p>\n\n
