Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
courses of instruction or training  applicability  out of canada 

Summary:

The claimant had been out of the country to take a course required for his new employment. It has been held in a number of cases that, unless a claimant falls under the exceptions provided in section 55 of the Regulations, there has to be a disqualification for the period during which the claimant is out of the country. Therefore, the Umpire found that the Board erred in its conclusion that the claimant had to do what was required of him to qualify for his job and that he should be entitled to his benefits. The Commission's decision was restored.
