affected worker shall be the amount which is
the product of 52 multiplied by the trade read-
justment allowance payable to the worker for a

(A) follows the last week of entitlement to
trade readjustment allowances otherwise pay-
able under this part; or
(B) begins with the first week of such train-
ing, if such training begins after the last week
described in subparagraph (A).
Payments for such additional weeks may be
made only for weeks in such 52-week period 1
during which the individual is participating in
such training.
(b) Limitations on additional payments for train-
ing periods
A trade readjustment allowance may not be
paid for an additional week specified in sub-
section (a)(3) if the adversely affected worker
who would receive such allowance did not make

approved by the Secretary under section 2296 of
this title within 210 days after the date of the
worker’s first certification of eligibility to

of a worker ends within an extended benefit pe-
riod, the number of weeks of extended benefits
that such worker would, but for this subsection,
be entitled to in that extended benefit period
shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the
number of weeks for which the worker was enti-
tled, during such benefit year, to trade readjust-
ment allowances under this division. For pur-
poses of this paragraph, the terms ‘‘benefit
year’’ and ‘‘extended benefit period’’ shall have
the same respective meanings given to them in
the
Federal-State
Extended
Unemployment
Compensation Act of 1970.

No trade readjustment allowance shall be paid
to a worker under this division for any week
during which the worker is receiving on-the-job
training.
(f) Workers treated as participating in training
For purposes of this part, a worker shall be
treated as participating in training during any
week which is part of a break in training that
does not exceed 30 days if—

ing program approved under section 2296(a) of
this title before the beginning of such break in
training, and
(2) the break is provided under such training
program.
(g) 1 Additional weeks to complete training

worker to complete training approved for the
