I have recently completed a CIPD accredited qualification and have now resigned. My employer think I am liable to pay back the money. I haven't signed anything to say I would stay post-qualification.

I don't know for certain but I'm inclined to say yes. I know my company specifies a time frame you have to stay for after gaining a CIPD.

I would think it must be in writing somewhere. Have you overlooked any fine print? Do you feel any moral obligation to repay it, as you have not fulfilled any expectations? Other wise, if not in writing that employer has learned a lesson and should make changes in his/her hiring agreements. There was a time when just a handshake sealed a contract for both parties. Those days are gone. Everything needs to be in writing with every "T" crossed and every " i " dotted. It's what we've come to.

You may not have signed anything to say you'd stay for a certain period of employment post qualifying, but check your notes from the meeting/appraisal/supervision in which this was discussed and agreed; you may have agreed to 'something' in this meetings documentation, without actually realising it????

it is generally recognised in the UK that you will stay a minimum of 1 year after qualifying, but it cant be enforced unless you signed to say you would do so or repay the costs if you did leave.

if you did not sign any papers to that effect then no.
they will probably give you 10 minutes to collect your things and get out, after you make that statement.
but really you are not bound by contract or law to stay the duration, and surly they knew that if they sponsor someone it is possible that they might always be someone who does not wish to complete.

If it is not on paper dont see why you have to pay them. Suggest you consult a lawyer.
