Ive been offered work at ZIAC english school. I was wondering if anyone has heard of it... Im not sure whether I should accept it or not, mainly because they ask for 10000 yen after I complete my training with them, but then they say they give you 50000 yen after you accept a contract, but they ask for the 50000 yen back if you brake the contract... they say that they now ask for the 10000 as a kind of insurance, because they have had people go through the training and then leave after recieving the free training... so can anyone offer me some advice???please?

I've heard of "unpaid" training, which in and of itself sucks, but I've never heard of "pay-for" training. AEON has a "deposit" system they give back after its week-long training session. I suspect that's what's really going on with this ZIAC school. You are not actually paying for the training, it is more like a "security" deposit for lack of a better description.
