When we as a company put guys on courses (at our cost), we keep the original and they get a photocopy. If they leave, the company will provide them with the originals (at discretion).
A few of the employees are kicking off, saying that they should hold the original.
My take is that we should hold the original for auditing purposes. The only reason they want the original is for job hunting.
Is anyone aware of a hard and fast rule on this?
Mucho thanks!
Can't you keep a copy for auditing and give them the original? People are allowed to apply for other jobs.
Drac, no-one is trying to prevent people applying for other jobs. They would be given the certs when they leave generally.
I personally don't think a copy is ideal when audited by clients.regulatory bodies and certification bodies
Depends on cert for us. If is is 'Basic Word' happy that we just keep a copy. If it is needed to do a job i.e. an industry qualification we would keep the original on file.
Sorry no hard/fast rule
Where I work I keep all the originals and they just take photo copies to keep in our records.

What DB says if it's a legal required qualification then keep the original if it's an additional course then why not have a copy. We get our original and there's records kept of courses attended by staff.
Must admit I think i'd be pissed off if I only got photo copies.
Me too especially when applying for jobs, I don't think it's ideal given future employers a photocopy.
