    It depends on why you want to leave. Why do you want to leave?

    Lots of people leave Springboard and Momentum courses each year.
    But the biggest issue you will face is that this course was given to you and not by your own choice to attend.

    You just have to go to your local social welfare office and explain your situation. Just remember a selfless reason goes over better than a selfish one.
    By that I mean explain that the course is not for you. You are just wasting people's time (the college etc) and you could be spending the duration of the course looking for work instead.

    Note; I said selfish reasons above as I have known people who said a momentum course was crap... it wasnt up to standards... yadda yadda. That will never go over well.

    Op, it depends on the reason you're leaving the course whether your dole's cut.
    Assuming you're not doing anything else, I'm not sure why you'd want to leave it. Seeing things through is one of the life skills you should get from the course. Networking opportunities might exist if you get on well with your instructor or others on the course.
