Summary:
Many full-time students seem to forget the main purpose of Unemployment Insurance benefits. They are not to be used as a subsidy to full-time students. Students can obtain loans and bursaries to meet their financial needs.

Summary:
The claimant devoted 13 hours a week to his courses. He therefore needed at least 13 hours a week in preparation for these courses as well as a certain number of hours for transportation, eating and sleeping. He is not pursuing part-time studies, otherwise he could not have received a bursary.

Summary:
The file states that the claimant was taking a night course while working at the Caisse populaire. I don't consider this a background in employment and studies as required. This is a full-time job and a part-time evening course.
