Summary:
The course was job-related. This finding was clearly viewed as material for the Board to allow the case. The fact that the course was job-related is not a relevant factor.

Summary:
The Board placed undue reliance on claimant's friend when it concluded that claimant was willing to abandon the course. It cost $3,500 for each of 3 sessions; in the absence of evidence about a refund policy, it was perverse for the Board to accept this based only on the credibility of claimant's friend.
