4. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

An employer may grant permission to an employee to attend a conference, seminar, or short term study course which will assist the employee to keep himself or herself informed of the developments of relevance to the business of the employer.

Where the conference, seminar, or short term study course has been approved by the employer and permission has been granted by the employer for the employee to attend, the employer shall meet reasonable associated costs and shall continue the payment of salary to the employee or make such other arrangements as may be mutually agreed.

PROVIDED that in all cases where permission to attend has been granted, the employee shall suffer no loss of continuity of service as a result of such attendance.
