Hello,

I have a post-graduation work permit. It is written on the permit:

UNLESS AUTHORIZED, MUST NOT ATTEND ANY EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION OR TAKE ANY ACADEMIC, PROFESSIONAL OR VOCATIONAL TRAINING COURSE.

I have a job offer which requires that I receive certain training or courses during the first months of my work. I will have to ask them about the details though, like whether or not they offer the training themselves or I should attend another institution.
Is there any AUTHORIZATION that I need to obtain, or I just can't accept the offer?

Thank you in advance for your help.

As you won't be attending a school and it won't be for more that 6 months, probably in-house training, so you don't need any authorization.

Thank you for your reply; I am a little sceptical because it seems they give me an insurance license when I finished the training.

Ive read somewhere that you do not need a study permit as long as the course in less than 6 months.
