Summary:
The claimant said he started his training before losing his employment and said he was willing to leave the training or modify his schedule if he found other employment. The Commission told the claimant that he could not receive benefits because he was not available for work while taking his course to which he was not referred. Claimants must prove their availability within the meaning of the Act for every working day. In this case, the claimant appears to have conducted only one job search since being laid off five months ago. The Commission's appeal is allowed by the Umpire.
