Yeah this is why I think those that are really up for retraining should be able to specially as the job climate is what it is. As things stand you can not take a full time course while on JSA so retraining is limited and takes a lot longer so I say give those with the willingness to apply themselves the chance to better themselves the costs will not be that great
