Similarly, a worker fell while walking to lunch and her claim was denied. We don't have time clocks, but since she left the office to go eat was "off the clock."
The problem is he didn't say "clock out to eat lunch." He said "clock out to use his lunch period to travel to training." The confusion is if this is official training, then travel to that training should be on the clock. If it's not official the he should. Be off work and then this question doesn't make sense as asked.
