I am on UC (LCW) and PIP. I am currently a part time biology student. I have tried to study a herbalism foundation course alongside this course but have been unable to find the time to do so. I have realised that my heart is not in the biology course however and I believe I'd like to move over to studying herbalism.
I am wondering about withdrawing from my biology studies at the end of the academic year.
This would mean that from June - January 2023 I am studying the herbalism foundation which is an online course.
Does anybody know what this would mean for my UC? I am not currently chased for work related activity because I am studying. Will I start to be chased for work related activity as soon as the foundation course ends? Will it be considered 'proper study' because it's not with a university?
Ideally I would begin the herbalism professional course in 2023. In the gap between January 2023 - September 2023, will I be expected to perform work related activity tasks? What would that mean?
