If you are receiving unemployment benefits and plan on starting school, be sure and let the Employment Department know when you register for classes. You must continue to be available to search for work and be willing to accept work while attending school or you could lose your benefits. Online classes may make it easier to accommodate this rule.
Furthermore, if you are receiving unemployment benefits, you may be eligible for a
training program through your state's employment department. This
allows you to go back to school while still receiving benefits. It is
generally limited to students who are interested in a technical or
certificate program that gets you trained and back to work.
Local rules may vary. Be sure to talk to your agency before proceeding.
