I went to Simcom in Orlando, I think it was $6840 + travel expenses for the program. In the contract it does not state that I owe them anything. No where within the contract is there stipulation that I have to pay them back for my training if the contract is broken. Portions of the contract follow:
Section 5: Employee to devote full time to company.
The employee will devote full time, attention, and energies to the business of the Company, and, during this employment, will not engage in any other business activity, regardless of whether such activity is pursued for profit, gain, or other pecuniary advantage. Employee is not prohibited from making personal investments in any other businesses provided those investments do not require active involvement in the operation of said companies.
Section 15: Severability.
If, for any reason, any provision of this agreement is held invalid, all other provisions of this agreement shall remain in effect. If this agreement is held invalid or cannot be enforced, then to the full extend permitted by law any prior agreement between the Company and the Employee shall be deemed reinstated as if this agreement had not been executed.
