To whom and on what terms
You must meet certain conditions in order to be able to receive unemployment benefit when you are studying:
- You are over 25 years of age.
- The total duration of your studies will last a maximum of six months
- Your studies will give you professional skills or promote your entrepreneurial plan.
Your studies must benefit your employment. You cannot get unemployment benefit for, for example, studies that are clearly of a leisure nature of the full duration of your studies is more than six months, they are not short-term. In that case, you should find out whether you are entitled to independent or part-time studies supported by unemployment benefit.
If you wish to continue with studies that you previously suspended, at least one year must have passed since the suspension of the studies.
The right to short-term full-time study on unemployment benefit is a one-off entitlement. You will be entitled to it again once the working condition has been met and the maximum daily allowance period has been recalculated from the beginning.
It may be possible to study for short periods of time, as long as you contact your employment authority early enough.
