Commissioner Approved Training (CAT)

Commissioner Approved Training allows you to collect your unemployment benefits while attending an approved, full–time training program. If approved, you do not have to look for work while receiving unemployment benefits.

Training Benefits (TB)

Training Benefits program offers additional weeks of unemployment benefits so eligible claimants can train for careers in a high–demand field.

If you are receiving unemployment benefits and plan to attend school, you must complete the appropriate training application (pdf). Call toll–free: 800.362.4636.
