Are you unlikely to return to your previous job and would you like to train for a new career, or maybe run your own business? If you qualify, you can attend approved training while collecting unemployment benefits. Also, you may not have to look for work while you’re in school. We offer three training programs, each with different qualifying rules. You must keep looking for work, be able to work and be available for work until we notify you in writing that you are approve you for a training program and are no longer required to look for work.
