It is estimated that the cost of training an apprentice in one of the existing craft apprenticeships is approximately €6,700 per annum and the cost of training an apprentice in one of the new consortia led apprenticeships is approximately €5,100 per annum.  The estimated annual cost of new consortia led apprenticeships may be subject to further refinement as greater numbers of these new programmes become operational.
