Dear All,
Very good evening!
We are working in theMicrofinance Industry and we plan to hire some grassroot level candidates by first putting them through a one month course on general abilities and Microfinance as a career option.
I need to roll out Provisional Offer Letters (POL) to these candidates stating clearly the criteria's they need to fulfill in this month to be sucessfully absorbed in our organization.
I will explicitly mention all necessary criteria's in the POL.
Please share your views on the same....
Thanks in advance...

An Offer Letter itself is "provisional".
If you intend to issue a "Provisional" Offer Letter; it implies lack of trust and questions the authenticity and intent (of hiring) of the Offer itself.

Dear Malvika
Thanks for your response and clarifying the issue.
What I gather now is, (apart from your normal hiring), you pick up (select) some candidates from grass-root level and impart training and on successful completion of which, they may be hired; although mere successful completion of the training does not create an obligation on the part of the company to hire the candidate.
You can call such letters -
for your own internal/administrative purpose to distinguish it from other offer letters issued in normal course.
However, a word of caution; Indian laws takes cognizance of anything "called by any other name"; which means that if a letter purports to be an offer letter, it remains so even if it is called differently.
Consequently, you will have to take care on how the letter is drafted; esp. the terms and conditions.
Hope you find the above helpful, in making the required distinction.
Warm regards.
