To be eligible for training benefits as a dislocated worker, you must have been separated from your employer due to a permanent reduction in operations at your place of employment or for a reason that does not disqualify you from benefits. Training benefits are not available if you left work voluntarily without good cause, or if you are disqualified from benefits for work-related misconduct under RCW 50.20.066, and have not requalified for benefits.
When deciding whether your separation from employment makes you eligible for training benefits, the department will look at the last job you held for a period of at least seven weeks in employment covered by Title 50 RCW or comparable federal or state laws.
