i don't know if this would apply to this situation, but it is fairly common in some industries... mine, for example.

if i leave my company of my own free will to work for another, within the next 30 months, i have to stroke them a check for $75000 to repay training costs. if however i am asked to leave due to performance issues i walk away free and clear.

i have no intention of doing that i absolutely love the firm i'm with, but might something along those lines work for you?

take the sweeter package available for training then not perform to expectations causing them to dismiss you so you can go to the firm you really want to be with, who you would of course stay in touch with the whole time... kind of convoluted, but beneficial?
