The average unit cost of a Springboard place is €4,450. However, the actual cost of individual places on Springboard courses varies from course to course, and can range between €578 to €10,500 per place, depending on the nature, the length and the skills area of the course. It is therefore not possible to give a general figure for the cost of every additional 100 Springboard places, without specifying the nature, type and level of the course.
