TomI compliment your approach, and I personally really like to see when employers do this. I think it provides opportunity, yet incentive. Two years seems especially reasonable. Most places that I have known who use this method for new-grad hires, have allowed 1 year. It is even better when they provide additional training and support to the person as they are preparing. Having been involved in an online program and clinical curricula in the past, I feel from my observations that continuity with work in the environment is essential for most in connecting the theory with execution.

This was all part of her hiring agreement, so she knew this coming in and completely understood that failing to achieve either one would affect her employment.
