Summary:
Left her job to take a course. Once before the Board, she abandoned her appeal on availability. Claim allowed by Umpire from the termination date of the course. The Umpire exceeded his jurisdiction by dealing with a question that had been withdrawn from the Board and therefore was not before him.

Summary:
Left work to take a 10-month course. Appeal allowed by Umpire from termination date of course. Claimant was disqualified for the whole period of her claim for having taken herself out of the work force without just cause. The Umpire was wrong in disputing the validity of that conclusion.
Since the coming into force of s. 30.1 of the Act on 3-4-93, the disqualification period has been established as the full benefit period. The discretion that had previously been conferred on the Commission to reduce the period of disqualification, if extenuating circumstances, has been withdrawn.

Summary:
Left to take a course. The argument that she falls within para. 28(4)(f) on the basis that her internship constituted employment, albeit without remuneration, is not valid. Remuneration, actual or eventual, for the services rendered is necessary in order for a job to constitute employment (BERUBE).
