Hi, ting.听说拿EI的时候还可以上个学什么的(学费EI COVER),我想找个ENGLISH之类的课程学学。不知EI上学有何具体规定?政府网站似乎没有EI上学的信息。谢谢!

when you go to the orientation HR department held for EI, they will assign a counsellor to you, then what you plan to do should discuss with your counsellor. For training issue, which kind of training you want to takeshould get approved by HR. otherwise, they will not pay for it.

Generally, is it possible for me (IT) to attend one English course (for example: public speaking, communication skills held by UofT)?

For sure! You don't need to get approval from HRDC if you pay off your tuition by yourself and your max class hours is 10 for a week.When you claim your bi-weekly report through telephone, you just report your training case and it doesn't affect your EI any more. Taking English course benefits you to improve your English anf find IT job quickly. In fact, nobody cares what kind of couse you take as long as you meet the above two requirements. Otherwise, you need to talk with HRDC counsellor first, and to read my previous post.
Good luck!

Thank you, huayu! That's the key. I do not want to "pay off your tuition by yourself ". I hope the EI pay my tuition fee for me. For example, there is one "public communication course" need almost $2000.Is it possible for me to take it free?
I hope I can get the EI benefit to improve my English. Some people say it is impossible because I major in IT.
thx.
