Can I do a course on jobseekers benefit

Hi,

I am currently on jobseekers benefit and would like to do a part time course, Ive looked on the websites and its not too clear what I am able to do without it affecting my ability to get a job. Also would I get a grant, or something for this, was thinking of doing something a few mornings a week? thannks

What course are you thinking of taking up? there is such a huge variety on offer, why don't you make enquiries at your local employment centre or maybe you might want to consider a FAS Training Course http://www.fas.ie/en/

Also - talk to your local SW office staff. They are there to assist.

See here at section C regarding part-time courses and JB/JA.
