[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Today our au pair asked us if time off to take a travel course (those 2-4 day au pair classes in which you earn the credits in a few days) is vacation time, and explained to me that it perhaps shouldn’t be vacation time because it is for the educational component. Anyone care to opine on this? It would be weekday time off, not just weekend. I explained that because travel is not required as part of the educational component, neither is time off for that non-required travel. [/quote] Are these classes for real? Or just basically a weekend away in some other city, like a mini-vacation? Seems like a for profit scam someone came up with, in lieu of APs finding classes in their community that would fit the educational component. Send her to an ESL or accounting class or something else that requires a little sustained effort.[/quote]
