    Ok. If it was me I'd tell the dole office that the course didn't work out and go back onto Jobseekers. As long as you meet the entry requirements for BTEA in Sept 2012 you may get it. If you don't tell DSP soon that you left the course they can deny it to you for another course. BTEA isn't a statutory payment which means it can be awarded and denied at the discretion of DSP. You will probably need to get a letter from the PLC college saying when you left and if you received more on BTEA for the period between leaving the course and the day you tell DSP than you would have on Jobseekers then you may have to refund it.

    Don't worry too much. If you are upfront about leaving the course with DSP it shouldn't be held against you in the future.
