What type of visa should I apply for while attending TEFL/CELTA training and looking for work in Thailand?
Looking for advice on which visa would be best for me. I'm returning to Thailand for a TEFL/CELTA training mid November in Bangkok. Is a tourist visa sufficient? I'll also be looking for work afterwards and possibly relocating. I'm a software developer that will be teaching english tech classes hopefully. Any advice?

Taking classes doesn't require any specific visa. You can study on any visa. A tourist entry would be fine if it provides you with enough time.
