3.3.4. The customer must comply with the host company’s code of conduct throughout his work placement or apprenticeship contract. The student is subject to the discipline and the clauses of the internal regulations applicable in the host company and which are brought to his attention before the start of the work placement or apprenticeship contract, particularly with regard to working hours and the health and safety rules in force in the host organisation. In addition, the customer is required to respect the company’s culture and internal policies, which may be set out in a staff handbook or communicated verbally.

T.D. cannot be held responsible if the customer does not obtain a visa or any other document required to travel / reside abroad and no refund of T.D.’s fees will be made.

4. The Host Company

4.1. The host company is the sole decision-maker regarding the choice of candidates for interview. In order to be eligible for an internship or apprenticeship contract, the student must have fulfilled all the criteria requested by the host company.
4.2. The host company must provide work assignments and tasks corresponding to those set out in the work placement agreement or apprenticeship contract drawn up prior to the start of the placement.
4.3. Host companies are subject to the law and must comply with it. The benefits provided by host companies (bonuses, accommodation, reimbursement of travel costs, meals, etc.) vary from company to company and from season to season, and cannot be guaranteed by T.D until the work placement agreement or apprenticeship contract has been signed.
4.4. The host company is liable for any damage (physical or material) suffered by the student during working hours or on the way to or from the company. If the customer is the cause of the damage caused, it is his or her own civil liability that is engaged. Some schools may also provide civil liability cover for students. Under an apprenticeship contract, the apprentice is covered by the same social security cover as an employee of the host company, which is subject to the social security contributions laid down by law. The host company is liable to the apprentice whether or not the apprentice caused the damage.
4.5. All negotiations concerning working hours, bonuses and holidays are held directly between the student and the host company. However, T.D. asks to be informed prior to any negotiations in order to ensure the compliance of the request and to advise the client if necessary.
4.6. The student is responsible for his/her own uniform for the duration of the placement or apprenticeship contract. Students must report to the host company in their own or their school’s complete and clean uniform (unless the host company provides its own uniform).
4.7. The host company and T.D. confirm that no absences will be tolerated during the in-company period. If the student is genuinely unable to attend the host company, whether for medical reasons or due to exceptional circumstances, it is imperative that the company be informed as soon as possible so that an alternative can be found. Any medical reason must be justified by a visit to the doctor and a medical certificate sent to the company as soon as possible. Repeated, unauthorised or unjustified absences will be viewed very negatively by the host company and sanctions may be imposed, such as termination of the placement or apprenticeship contract. Under these conditions, the student will not be entitled to any reimbursement from T.D.

5. Awards

5.1. T.D. reserves the right to modify its rates. However, services are invoiced on the basis of the rates in force on the date the customer signs the contract.
5.2. Prices are quoted in Euros and include all taxes.
5.3. Fares do not include air tickets, insurance, visa fees, excess baggage, airport taxes, food, public transport, excursions, additional activities, taxi transfers, monthly accommodation rent, pocket money and any other expenses not indicated on the package or T.D. menu.
5.4. The student undertakes to make payments according to a precise schedule: a deposit corresponding to the selected package must be paid to T.D upon signature of the contract. The balance of the selected package is due prior to the communication of the details of the host company chosen for the client and the making of an appointment for the interview with the said company.

6. Payment of the Package and/or Package and Menu: deposit and balance

6.1. Process
6.1.1. T.D. receives the customer’s request to find a work placement or an apprenticeship contract by registering on the T.D. platform or via the student’s school or CFA. The student receives a proposal for a meeting with T.D. to discuss his or her expectations and so that T.D. can offer the most suitable service to the customer. If the student is interested in the service, he or she pays the deposit corresponding to the package selected after the meeting. The customer will also have to complete the steps and provide the documents requested on their personal profile.
6.1.2. T.D. corrects the customer’s CV and covering letter, prepares and sends the customer’s application to the host companies corresponding to the company offers identified and selected for the customer.
6.1.3. When an initial host company shows an interest in the customer’s application and to enable contact to be made, T.D. requests payment of the balance of the package corresponding to the Package or Menu selected for and by the customer. T.D. will not divulge the details or the name of the host company pre-selected for the customer until it has received the balance due for the package.
The host company may express an interest in the customer’s profile and request the organisation of an initial face-to-face or remote interview (TEAMS, Whatsapp, telephone, etc.) with the customer. The host company may also request further interviews in line with its internal recruitment process, or a video presentation, a written test or any other knowledge or skills test from the customer before making its decision.
6.1.4. If several companies are interested in the customer’s profile, T.D undertakes to select the company corresponding to the customer’s best interests on the basis of the information provided by the customer during the various stages of the service.
6.1.5. Some host companies accept customer applications without prior interview. In this case, T.D. requests payment of the balance from the customer as soon as the customer’s application has been considered by the host company. Once payment has been made by the customer, T.D. will provide information about the company that is interested in the customer’s application. This information will enable the customer to make a decision regarding the host company’s offer.
6.1.6. The customer undertakes to pay the deposit and the balance on receipt of the T.D. invoice.
6.1.7. T.D. will send all the necessary information to the customer to enable them to prepare for their interview with the host company (advice booklet, names of HR and tutor contacts, website and host company contact) once it has received payment of the customer’s balance.
6.1.8. It is the customer’s responsibility to ask all the necessary questions about the work placement or apprenticeship contract (tasks, start and end dates in the company, remuneration, working conditions, working hours, place of work) during the interview with the host company or before accepting the work placement.
6.2. Payment and refund of the deposit and/or the balance of the Package or Menu :
6.2.1. All payments are secure and must be made via the student portal, by bank transfer or by any other means if the first two are not possible. Bank cheques are not accepted.
6.2.2. Payment of the deposit and the balance must be made within two days (48 hours) of receipt of the invoice.
6.2.3 It is the Customer’s responsibility to ensure that payment is possible and can be made on time.
6.2.4. As the prices of the services offered are in Euros (€), variations in exchange rates are not reimbursable or attributable to T.D.
6.2.5. T.D. may use the services of a debt collection company to ensure payment for its services in the event that the customer does not pay the invoices sent by T.D. and the sums due.
6.2.6. Once the balance has been paid, if the client fails the first interview or test required by the host company, T.D. may organise further interviews or tests with the host companies. However, the client understands and accepts that T.D. cannot commit to and guarantee the organisation of more than 3 interviews or other tests, as this depends on the willingness of the host companies and their interest in the client’s profile.
6.2.7. T.D. cannot be held responsible if no host company is interested in the customer’s profile (for an interview or a test), but having been unable to provide the service, T.D. undertakes to refund the amount of the deposit received.
6.2.8. If the customer decides not to attend the scheduled interview with the host company, after receipt of the message from T.D. for payment of the balance, the balance remains due to T.D. by the customer.
6.2.9. If the customer decides to abandon the placement process, or takes too long in this procedure (more than 15 days) for any reason whatsoever (including because he/she has obtained an internship or an apprenticeship contract outside the T.D. placement process, he/she has to apply for a passport, he/she has another project, he/she has had his/her visa refused, or any other reason), before payment of the balance, the balance to be paid remains due to T.D. by the customer.
6.2.10. If the customer changes his/her mind after having been accepted by a host company (with or without a prior interview) and refuses the offer, the sums already paid will not be reimbursed under any conditions.
6.2.11. Cancellation of the customer’s application on the basis of, but not limited to, the following reasons: change of mind, loss of interest in the offer, waiting for interviews with companies not linked to T.D., looking for a host company themselves, change of dates, change of field of study, lack of financial resources, failure to obtain credit or any grant, scholarship, or other administrative documents (such as, but not limited to: visa, residence permit, etc.) or any other reason not listed above, will not be considered as a valid reason for not paying the deposit or for requesting a refund.
6.2.12. If the customer’s behaviour is deemed to be unprofessional at any stage of the process (e.g. sending documents after the deadline, incorrect behaviour towards T.D., its school, the host company or any other partner), T.D. may decide to terminate its agreement with the customer without the customer being entitled to claim any refund.

7. Change of Host Company or refund of the Package :

7.1. In the event of a problem with the host company, the customer must contact T.D. promptly to enable it to find solutions.
7.2. If the customer has not yet started his/her work placement or apprenticeship contract :
7.2.1. Cancellation of the customer’s work placement or apprenticeship contract on the basis of, but not limited to, the following reasons: change of mind, loss of interest in the offer, waiting for interviews with companies not linked to T.D., having found another host company themselves, change of dates, change of field of study, dismissal or exclusion from the educational establishment, lack of financial resources, failure to obtain credits or any other subsidy, grant, visa, or any other reason not included in the above list will not be considered as a valid reason for not paying the invoice for the package or for requesting reimbursement.
7.2.2. The customer understands and accepts that by contracting T.D. to find a host company and/or for any other service, T.D. allows time to carry out the work requested by the customer. Consequently, T.D. asks the customer to pay the package selected for the work carried out and the time spent.
7.3. When the customer has already started at the host company :
7.3.1. A customer’s request to change Host Company will only be considered in cases recognised by law, such as: – Sexual or moral harassment. – Racial or religious defamation. – Impossibility on the part of the host company to continue the in-company training. – Declaration of bankruptcy by the host company. – Failure to comply with health or safety measures likely to harm or affect the customer. – Failure to correlate the assignments and tasks entrusted to the customer with those specified in the work placement agreement or apprenticeship contract signed between the customer and the host company.
7.3.2. If the customer is dissatisfied with the host company, T.D. undertakes to listen to the reason(s) and to do its best to propose solutions that are viable for both the customer and the host company.
7.3.3. If the customer encounters problems during his/her work placement or apprenticeship period with his/her accommodation or any other service subscribed through T.D., he/she must first contact T.D., T.D. will investigate the situation, give advice so that the student can contact his/her tutor in the host company or the partner having provided a service to the customer. T.D. will contact the host company or partners and propose to organise a meeting or telephone conference between T.D., the customer and the host company or partner to find appropriate solutions. Only complaints communicated in written form (letter or e-mail) will be taken into account.
7.3.4 If the student feels that the employer is treating them unfairly, they should ask the tutor or manager for a meeting to discuss their performance in the company. It should be borne in mind that, depending on each person’s culture, things may be perceived very differently. The student decides to come to France to learn a trade, but also to understand the culture and get to grips with a way of managing that is different from his or her own country. The student must listen to comments, always taking them in a positive light, and accept multiculturalism with an open mind. During the meeting, the student will ask their tutor if there are any areas in which they need to improve and to explain/demonstrate any procedures in which they do not feel comfortable. If the situation does not improve, the student will let T.D. know so that he can give him some help.
7.3.5 Before taking any action within the company, the student will contact T.D. for advice. The T.D. teams cannot help their customer to solve a problem of which they are not aware beforehand!
7.3.6. If the customer is not satisfied with the host company for a valid and justified reason (see section 7.3.1) and solutions cannot be found, T.D. undertakes to do its best to find another host company that matches the customer’s profile and field of activity (depending on the availability of host companies), the remaining duration (minimum 3 months) and the customer’s level of French.
7.3.7. If the customer decides to terminate the work placement or apprenticeship contract on his or her own without discussing it or notifying T.D. and without prior validation by T.D., or if the host company decides to terminate, due to inappropriate behaviour (verbally or physically abusive behaviour, racist behaviour, consumption of drugs or alcohol, bad conduct, insubordination, behaviour deemed unacceptable by the tutor or the host company managers, professional negligence of work assignments or failure to comply with the rules of the host company), T.D will not reimburse the package or the “à la carte” services paid for by the customer and will not place the customer with another host company.
7.3.8. The student undertakes to comply with French legislation and not to endanger him/herself or a third party.
