    If you read the above it says about claiming UC, if course is non advanced, there is no student finance and they are available/searching for work. You mention course is funded and it will depend on the details.

    No harm in him submitting a UC claim, providing all of the information and finding out if he is entitled or not
    This is where I feel the Course would fall - non-advanced without the provision of loan or maintenance… therefore the only barrier would be if the Course were incompatible with work related requirements (i.e. you’d need to be actively seeking work).
