Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jessica Booker" data-source="post: 95319" data-attributes="member: 2672">A traditional TC was pretty much guaranteed employment for two years - firms don’t have things like probationary periods in LPC TCs because the commitment was two years of training with one employer. Only things like misconduct would have really allowed a firm to terminate your TC (or the firm going bust). The TC was attached to your employer (they were regulated) as much as it was tied to you as an employee and that gave trainees a range of protections.With the SQE, firms are no longer regulated as training providers. You can also qualify by gaining qualifying work experience with multiple employers, and so a firm has no requirement to keep you on (like they currently do) as ultimately you could still qualify with another organisation. The qualification process is solely with you as an individual. It’s not attached to the firm in anyway.So I would expect firms to be much more like the investment banks and professional services firms who recruit graduates, and start to have probation periods in employment contracts. They could technically make you redundant too if they wanted to - something that would be almost impossible for them to do now.</blockquote>
