Trend: Completing the trend of training in global corporates, 1990s started free training trend from finance companies.

American companies are charging millions of dollars from people who skip free training

When animal lover Breanne Skelly saw on the website of pet supply chain Pet Smart that the company was offering free pet care training, she immediately applied. In fact, Skelly had already wanted to open an animal care center. He felt that this training would be of great use to him. However, he soon found out that the free training advertisement was actually a scam.

Before the training, Skelly was made to sign a contract note that if he left the training before the year, he would have to pay the company $5000 (about Rs. 4 lakh) as a penalty and $500 (Rs. 40,000) for the equipment. However, others in the company told him that if he sells well, the company will not pressure him to pay the penalty. Unsatisfied with the training, Skelly left the training after just one year and is now facing legal action from the company to fine him.

There are thousands of people in America who have been victims of this kind of free training fraud and have paid millions of rupees as fines or are going through court. In the 1990s, this trend of free training started from finance companies and now this type of training has become common for professions like grooming, pet care, truck driving.

It has boomed in the last 5-10 years. People get lured into this kind of training despite knowing the penalty terms. In fact, Skelly had already wanted to open an animal care center. He felt that this training would be of great use to him. However, he soon found out that the free training advertisement was actually a scam.

Before the training, Skelly was made to sign a contract note that if he left the training before the year, there was a penalty of 5000 dollars (about 4 lakh rupees) and 500 dollars for the equipment. The current circumstances that this trend will start in the near future are being rejected.

Every 10th US signed a free training contract
According to a 2020 survey, 1 in 10 Americans signed a free training contract.
