Hi
I am currently working in an office in the construction industry. Due to the down turn in business I have been reduced from five days work to three days work and I am claiming job seekers benefit for the days I am not working.
Tomorrow, I will find out if I am being made redundant or not. Just considering my options. I will take redundancy if offered but I would like to update my computer skills/payroll etc and I have been looking into FAS courses for this. If i was to take on a FAS course do I still get paid my Jobseekers benefit or do I loose that if I am doing a FAS course, or do I get paid from FAS whilst I am doing one of their courses.
Any information greatly appreciated.
