Can Employment Insurance benefits be paid during a break between two training courses?
If your entitlement to regular benefits has not been terminated and you have not received all of your weeks of entitlement, you could receive Employment Insurance (EI) benefits for the number of weeks to which you are entitled, as long as you meet all the other conditions of eligibility. On the other hand, if your entitlement to regular benefits has been terminated, you will not receive EI benefits. Your benefits will begin to be paid to you again once the new training course authorized by the provider restarts.
