summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
availability for work courses after reasonable period of time
Summary:

Although the claimant showed that he had a history of working and going to school, he was not granted any reasonable period of time, and he was refused benefits. According to the Umpire, BOR erred in law in not taking this situation into account by granting a reasonable period of three months, given his undisputed history of working and going to school and the claimant's availability to work part-time while attending school 15 to 18 hours a week.

summary
Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
availability for work courses after reasonable period of time
Summary:

Pattern of working while attending school established. BOR is wrong in saying that claimant could look for p/t job without a termination date, that is to say indefinitely. Jurisprudence shows slearly that a period of 8 weeks is the norm. Here the Commission had granted 18 weeks. The BOR erred in not finding that the 18 weeks already granted for search time was reasonable.

The beneficiary is unemployed, and takes courses during the day. Because of his work and study history, he received benefits between September and December.
